How Recruiting Works (Employers) — 4 Simple Steps
Complete a short form with pay, benefits, timeline, and any buy-out potential. We begin sourcing immediately. Typical sourcing: 1–6 months depending on market & competitiveness.
We pre-screen and help schedule interviews with best-fit candidates; aim to move within 1 week–1 month.
Offers facilitated by a recruiter have ~80% higher acceptance; we guide all rounds to a clean yes/no within about a week.
Set the start date; we coordinate the handoff and focus on long-term fits. We will invoice you the fee once a position has been filled for 30 days.
Why is ODoF Recruiting so effective?
Hire faster
It’s a competitive hiring market. With the increasing difficulty of finding a job, strong candidates move quickly. A full-service recruiting team helps your practice stand out and secure the right OD—quickly.
Reduce downtime, maximize revenue
Every day your practice goes without an optometrist means lost revenue and missed opportunities for growth. Whether you’re expanding or replacing a departing doctor, filling open positions quickly is essential to keeping your business thriving.
Reduce admin costs
Recruiting takes time—and time is money. By letting us handle the headhunting, you eliminate expenses tied to job postings, listings, scheduling, and screening. Our streamlined process saves you both time and money, often making our recruiting service the most cost-effective option overall.
