What the recruiting engagement covers
Confirm the scope with BEGHR before authorizing work. Permanent placement supports an employer hiring directly; it is not a promise of temporary staff or an available candidate inventory.
- Identify which sourcing and screening tasks BEGHR will perform.
- Set interview ownership and a process for timely feedback.
- Confirm fees, milestones and responsibilities in the written engagement.
Prepare the role brief
Write down the information a candidate needs to evaluate the position before the search begins.
- List the hospitals and travel expectations within the role.
- Define authority across clinical quality, people and operational decisions.
- Agree reporting relationships and how hospital leaders will be supported.
Plan the work location in Oakland.
Oakland’s Rockridge and Fruitvale districts are distinct from the separate City of Berkeley. Oakland identifies BART stations at Rockridge and Fruitvale, but a station name does not establish a walkable route to a particular hospital.
For an Oakland search, give the hospital entrance, shift times and the clinical resources at that site. Keep any Berkeley assignment separate, and let candidates assess the journey from the actual address.
Review Oakland-area recruiting coverage →Plan California credential checks before the start date.
The Board’s license page describes the search, and each record shows whether a license is current, expired or subject to disciplinary action. Assign a person to verify status, record the date and resolve questions with the Board. Check any additional specialty credentials required by the employer with the issuing organization.
