The Minneapolis Talent Market

Why healthcare roles are hard to fill in Minneapolis

Minneapolis sits in the Midwest and is a Fortune 500 headquarters market in finance, healthcare, and retail with deep but contested talent. The strongest healthcare candidates here are already employed and are contacted constantly, which means a job posting reaches the people who are easiest to find, not the ones you actually want. We reach the passive healthcare talent in Minneapolis and the surrounding MN market directly, before they ever see a listing.

The Math on Waiting

Every week that Minneapolis seat stays open is a choice.

One travel nurse covering a permanent vacancy costs $15,000-$30,000 per month more than a permanent hire. A 90-day vacancy managed with travel staff can cost your organization $45,000-$90,000 in excess spend before the search even closes.

The Talent Window

The best candidates are available for a few weeks.

Strong clinical candidates are actively recruited by multiple health systems. A passive nurse who opens up to a new opportunity typically accepts an offer within 2-3 weeks. A search process that takes 90 days is not competing for those candidates - it is competing for whoever is left.
