About the Client and Their Needs
This client was in the midst of building a new hospital and needed clinicians to hit their target opening date. Elite365 presented them with more than 50 top talent medical professionals, filling numerous jobs in multiple specialties including: Hospital Medicine, OB/GYN, Anesthesia, Radiology, and Psychiatry.
Before Partnering with Elite365
Q. What challenges were you facing with staffing before partnering with Elite365?
A. “Our biggest challenge was working with leaders who did not have a deep understanding of talent acquisition or how to effectively project manage staffing for a hospital position. A successful hospital launch requires 4-5 years of pre-planning, and the complexity of creating a comprehensive staffing plan was often underestimated.“
During Our Partnership
Q. How would you describe your experience working with our recruiters/consultants?
A. “The intake process was thorough, professional, and built immediate trust.“
Q. Did our team make the process easier, faster, or more reliable than other options?
A. “Yes. While there were some early challenges in establishing clear processes and aligning expectations, the team worked diligently to overcome them. Recruiting academic candidates in a nonprofit environment with compensation limitations is not easy, but they navigated those challenges with persistence and focus.”
Q. What stood out to you most about how we handled your staffing needs?
A. “The dedication of the team. They consistently demonstrated commitment and responsiveness to ensure our needs were met.”
Results and Impact
Q. How has our staffing support improved your hospital’s operations or patient care?
A. “Their support allowed us to achieve a timely opening and deliver care to an underserved community. Being able to expand access to high-quality care in that area was both meaningful and exciting.“
Overall Experience
Q. If you were to recommend us to another hospital, what would you tell them?
A. “They are professional, attentive, and deeply aligned with patient needs and specialty requirements. They listen carefully during the intake process and tailor their service model to match.”
Q. In just a few words, how would you describe our company and service?
A. “Professional, proficient, kind, on task, and on target. Easy to work with, collaborative in resolving bottlenecks and payment challenges, and absolutely at the top of my list for referrals and future partnerships.”

“When we partnered with this client, our goal wasn’t just to staff a hospital, it was to help launch one. In just six months, we built a team of skilled clinicians ready to serve the community on day one. The impact was clear: patients were seen faster, staff morale was high, and leadership felt confident knowing they had a reliable pipeline of talent to support both their immediate needs and future growth.” – Amanda Kuzski, Director of Permanent Recruiting
