Navigating the Future of Candidate Acquisition and Retention

Episode Summary In this episode of Elevate Care, hosts Kerry Perez and Liz Cunningham dive deep into the evolving landscape of healthcare candidate acquisition and retention. Leveraging their extensive backgrounds in strategy, marketing, and technology, they explore how regulatory changes and the rise of Generative AI are reshaping how clinicians search for jobs and how organizations must adapt their digital marketing strategies.

They also challenge traditional notions of loyalty programs, proposing a "long tail" approach to clinician engagement that prioritizes consistent service and access over points-based rewards.
