Hi! I would like to know your opinion and possibly get some advice. How, in your experience, can a healthcare professional find a job as a temporary replacement doctor? I am interested in temporary employment, for example, during the vacation of the main employee or when an urgent replacement is needed. What steps are best to take: contact clinics and hospitals directly, search through specialized agencies or use online platforms for doctors? 3:25pm

I recently found myself in a similar situation and was looking for a temporary job as a substitute doctor. To be honest, I tried different options: calling clinics directly, posting my resume on general websites, and even responding to ads on social networks. But the most effective way turned out to be through specialized medical recruiting agencies and online platforms that work specifically with temporary appointments. A resource similar to travel nurse jobs from TLC Locum was especially helpful to me - the search process is much faster and more transparent there: you indicate your specialization, desired dates, and in the near future you receive specific offers. Plus, such services often take on organizational issues, which saves a lot of time. So, if you need a part-time job for the period of vacations or urgent replacements, I advise you to start with proven specialized platforms - it is reliable and convenient. 8/19/2025

I recently found myself in a similar situation and can share my experience. For me personally, the most effective way to find temporary work as a substitute doctor was through specialized recruiting agencies and online platforms for doctors. Through them, I got access to a large number of offers and could choose exactly those vacancies that matched my schedule and professional interests. Direct contact with clinics also works, but most often it takes a lot of time and effort: you need to send a resume, wait for a response, and sometimes a vacancy appears suddenly, and there is no time for lengthy approvals. With agencies and platforms, the process is much faster - they check the clinics' requirements in advance, help with paperwork and can even offer short-term options that are ideal for substitutions during vacation or sick leave. I was pleased with this approach, because it really allows you to combine a flexible schedule with interesting practice and new experience. |
