Stand Out on Indeed
Thanks to a critical labor shortage, healthcare hiring is more competitive than ever and employers need to be able to stand out on large job platforms like Indeed.
But with so many of your competitors using Indeed to recruit candidates, having a strong strategy in place is essential so your listings don’t get lost in the noise.
By leveraging best practices for recruiting healthcare workers, employers can more effectively stand out from the competition and beat the labor shortage.
Follow our 8 tips for healthcare employers to help you stand out on Indeed.
Tip #1
Create Quality Job Descriptions
Job descriptions can make or break your recruitment strategy. In fact, 52% of job seekers say the quality of a job description significantly influences their decision to apply to a role.
Job post language choice, formatting, readability, and length all have the power to attract the right candidates —or drive them away.
Keeping healthcare workers in mind when writing quality job descriptions is key to standing out on Indeed.

Tip #2
Differentiate Your Facility
Healthcare workers want to know about the role they’re applying for; but they also want to know who they’ll be working for.
According to LinkedIn, 75% of job seekers consider an employer’s brand before they even apply to a job. By presenting your company and treating your employees well, you can hire and retain healthcare workers more effectively.
Stand out from other healthcare employers by making it clear why you’re the best fit for your ideal candidates.

Tip #3
Sponsor Your Jobs
Standing out as an employer can be a challenge, especially on a platform where millions of new jobs are posted every day.
Luckily, Indeed has a solution: Sponsored Jobs. This feature allows you to increase your visibility and get in front of more job seekers. Sponsored jobs also deliver 80% more qualified applicants on average than non-sponsored jobs.

Tip #4

Job hunting can be a long and tedious process, but applying to your open role shouldn’t be. The easier you can make submitting an application, the more applicants you’ll attract.
Indeed’s Easy Apply feature helps candidates submit applications in just a few clicks, increasing your reach and potentially decreasing time-to-hire.

Being listed as a Responsive Employer makes you look more trustworthy to prospective applicants and encourages them to apply with you.

Be Transparent About Salary
Pay transparency is key to attracting quality candidates and is now mandatory in some states and on job platforms like Indeed.
