Compare the complete engagement cost
Use the employer pricing form for an estimate. The signed engagement determines the actual obligations, including billable work that may remain payable without a completed hire.
- Ask which milestones trigger invoices and when payment is due.
- Confirm the fee basis and what work is included.
- Read replacement conditions, exclusions and any additional terms.
Prepare the role brief
Write down the information a candidate needs to evaluate the position before the search begins.
- List the hospitals and travel expectations within the role.
- Define authority across clinical quality, people and operational decisions.
- Agree reporting relationships and how hospital leaders will be supported.
Plan the work location in Richmond.
Richmond city, Henrico County and Chesterfield County are distinct work locations. A Richmond mailing address or regional hospital name does not replace the precise hospital address and jurisdiction.
A Richmond-area search should connect the job title to the actual hospital, shift and clinical support. Name the city or county workplace and separate primary-care, urgent-care and referral responsibilities.
Review Richmond-area recruiting coverage →Verify Virginia credentials before agreeing the clinical start.
Record the candidate's current Virginia license status and verification date. Resolve restrictions with the licensing authority and verify any required specialty credentials separately.
