Providence Named Among Oregon’s Most Admired Companies

 

We are proud to partner with clients devoted to improving healthcare through the communities they serve. That’s why we want to applaud Providence for earning their place on the Portland Business Journal’s list of Oregon’s Most Admired Companies for 2018.

 

Local business owners from nearly 1,000 Oregon companies gathered together in downtown Portland for what was the biggest business event of the season. Owners voted on companies from various industries across nine different categories.

 

The results of this vote put Providence Health & Services in the No. 3 spot in the Healthcare category and in the No. 10 spot across all industries. Congratulations to our partners at Providence for this outstanding achievement!

 

Every Physician’s Worst Nightmare

 

Are you tired of feeling harassed by recruiters who don’t listen to or care about what you want? We know…it sounds weird hearing that from a staffing agency. Here’s the thing though: We’ve been in this business a long time, so we know what makes a good recruiter—and what doesn’t.

With that in mind, we thought it’d be fun to put a video together that shows every physician’s worst nightmare. Check out our spooky teaser below, and keep your eyes peeled for the premiere after the New Year!
