Step 1—The initial locum tenens consultation
As a first step, we’ll schedule a phone consultation with a Barton Associates locum tenens expert to discuss your interests, goals, and work history in order to get a good sense for what you’re looking for and gather the information we’ll need to place you in a locum job.
We’ll need an updated copy of your CV beforehand and we’ll also need to gather a few references so we can move forward.
Step 2—Explore available locum tenens positions
Now that we understand your background and the type of locums job you’re looking for, our recruiting team goes to work. Leveraging an extensive network of contacts and available locum tenens positions, we’ll present you with options that match your needs and goals.
Step 3—Candidate Submittal
Once you’ve had a chance to evaluate your options and have decided which position(s) you’re interested in, we’ll submit your CV and other critical information to our client for review. We may also need to set up a phone interview between you and our client at this stage just to make sure everyone agrees it’s a good fit.
Step 4—Make your decision
If, after evaluating your options, you and the hiring facility or practice decide to move forward, we’ll put the details of the locum assignment on paper and finalize the arrangement.
Step 5—Let us handle any licensing, credentialing and travel related details
Now that you’ve agreed to move forward, our team will work with you to handle any remaining details, such as those related to licensing, credentialing, and travel. At this point, you’ll be assigned a licensing and credentialing specialist and a travel specialist to guide you through these issues step by step. We’ll also help you with all the paperwork and tedious details—saving you time and energy.
Step 6—Start your locum job!
Now that we’ve tackled any licensing, credentialing, and travel related issues, you’re ready to get started. You’ll be paid on a net 15 basis as an independent contractor and, of course, you’ll have access to our team of experts throughout your assignment.
