Recruiters, Please Read This!

Regional Is Excited That Your Are Interested In Submitting A Physician For Our Consideration...
We are very glad that you are excited to get to work on our needs but please read the following. We know that you are working for more than one healthcare facility; however, with the following simple guidelines can be successful.
In order to help me help you better, we wanted to share our recruiting procedures with you:

1. All Doctors MUST be cleared through my desk via email before forwarding a CV. Please provide the physician's FULL NAME (first and last) along with the opportunity. FOR FASTER SERVICE - PLEASE PLACE THE DOCTOR'S NAME AND OPPORTUNITY IN THE SUBJECT LINE (i.e., John Doe, MD - Internal Med).

2. First recruiter to clear a Doctor's name is the recruiter of record. No exceptions.

3. Calls from recruiters/ search firms will be accepted after 2 o'clock pm Monday through Friday.

4. Doctor's names should be cleared via email. PLEASE PLACE THE DOCTOR'S NAME AND OPPORTUNITY IN THE SUBJECT LINE (i.e., John Doe, MD - Internal Med). Email allows for an electronic date stamp and an electronic reply - cleared / not cleared. Phone clearance does not offer clearance confirmation available with electronic method.

5. Following receipt of clearance, the Doctor's CV should be forwarded via email. EMAIL IS PREFERRED. Email saves valuable time since I can communicate with most of our doctors by email. Fax copies will be accepted, however, the cover sheet should indicate date/time cleared via email. EMAIL IS THE ONLY METHOD FOR CLEARANCE.

6. If clearance was made by anyone other than myself, please indicate name of person giving clearance. Please note that if the person providing clearance did not have access to the database - clearance is conditional upon database search.

7. All clearances are conditional upon receipt of CV's within 24 hours of clearance given. All emails are retained for record.

8. Use only FAX 205-752-5050 (NEW#). Other hospital fax numbers may eventually reach my desk but the date stamp will be the date received at my desk, which may be different from the date, and time the fax was actually received.

9. ALL CVs either faxed or emailed without clearance will be deleted/shredded without review/consideration

10. Please allow ample time for a response to emails. We receive hundreds of emails each week and that number doubles during special recruiting events or spring right before graduation. Please do not expect a response to your email before 48 hours. Please note that ALL emails are answered in order of receipt.

All additional questions regarding cleared CVs (status, etc.) can be forwarded by email as well and I will get you an answer as quickly as possible.

We all look forward to working with you to fill our open opportunities.
