Using SEO best practices and targeted content is the key to solving both. In 2025, AI-driven search and natural language processing (e.g., GPT, Gemini) mean recruiters must optimize postings for both humans and algorithms.

In 2025, staffing agencies in healthcare face a dual challenge: finding qualified candidates quickly and controlling recruiting costs. With specialized platforms like DirectShifts, which combine job board functionality with full-service staffing support, agencies can maximize ROI by leveraging both human and AI-driven strategies.

Telehealth is no longer a niche offering — it’s a core component of U.S. healthcare. By 2025, over 80% of hospitals and 60% of primary care practices are expected to offer telehealth services (American Hospital Association).

Recruiters and staffing agency professionals face a constant challenge: filling healthcare roles quickly without overspending. Understanding the cost dynamics between traditional staffing agencies and DirectShifts’ hybrid model — job board + staffing services — is critical to building an efficient hiring strategy.

When you’re trying to fill a critical healthcare role, deciding where to post your job is as important as writing the posting itself. Should you choose a job board (like DirectShifts) or a job aggregator (like Indeed, ZipRecruiter, or SimplyHired)?

Healthcare is already the fastest-growing job sector in the U.S., projected to add 2.3 million jobs by 2032 (BLS). But supply isn’t keeping up — especially in specialties like psychiatry, nursing, and advanced practice.
