Report: Millennials Seek Long-Term Careers in Health Care
The Healthcare Job Search Insights Report by HealthCareerCenter.com is an annual study of health care job seeker behavior and attitudes. The report explores the job seeker’s challenge and provides employers with valuable insights that can be applied to recruitment strategies.
The 2017 report includes up-to-date information on the millennial health care workforce, for jobseekers born between 1982 and 2000. Data shows that millennials are perceptive, flexible, team-oriented workers who are seeking long-term growth opportunities in health care. With an aging health care workforce and impending retirements, research provides timely information for regional health care employers. Now more than ever, employers must ensure they have the right talent mix to fill both current and future positions as they decide how to invest HR resources.
With respect to the actual job search, while millennials tend to access company websites to learn more about a position or industry, they are more likely to reach out to family and friend connections for insight on perspective companies — and 80 percent of those surveyed use online job boards to apply for positions.
These are exciting trends, and it is a great time for employers to connect with this dynamic workforce. Be sure to visit www.healthcareercenter.com to use the job board network for your health care recruitment needs to reach, not only millennials, but jobseekers of every age and skill set.
