The talent NorthStar Anesthesia depends on isn’t easy to find. They’re highly qualified, sought after, and in short supply. Consisting mostly of anesthesiologists and CRNAs, these candidates are expensive to recruit and require a thoughtful, high-touch approach.

NorthStar Anesthesia faced difficulty filling critical positions quickly enough to meet growing demand. Their existing recruiting process relied on their HCM’s recruiting module – which led to prolonged vacancies, slower hiring cycles, and missed opportunities to bring in top talent.

Since partnering with iCIMS, NorthStar has increased positions filled per month by 50% and decreased physician vacancies by 40%. They’ve done this while saving recruiters an average of two hours per day in administrative busy work.

Filling contracts depends on quality data

Having accurate, real-time data is key for NorthStar’s operations team. It helps them deliver on contracts because they’re now able to workforce plan more effectively. This was a perpetual sore spot prior to iCIMS.

“We’re able to produce more timely position-filled and pipeline status reports,” says McMullin. “This helps us talk to specific scenarios with our operations team, such as how many candidates were contacted for a specific job.”

Transforming the role of talent acquisition

Today, NorthStar’s recruiting team is an invaluable asset to the organization. But it wasn’t always that way. NorthStar’s leadership team used to view recruiting as the source of their woes. Now it’s seen as a core strength – even by previous skeptics, including the Operations team and Board of Directors.

“Any doubt about our team has been eliminated since partnering with iCIMS,” says Lindsey McMullen, a clinical recruiter. “It’s been nothing but appreciation since.”

We chose iCIMS' best-in-breed recruiting platform to maximize the quality and functionality of the experience and minimize the wasted motion for all users – recruiters, candidates and hiring managers.
