Why should I use Physician Executive Leadership Center
to do my next physician executive search?
Since 1983, we have been the only
national search firm that specializes in physician executive
search. We are very good at what we do and are uniquely positioned
to assist you. Our clients tell us how pleased they are with
the quality of our work and service. What this means for you
is that you can be totally confident in our ability to complete
your search efficiently and effectively. For more reasons,
see our Reasons
To Use PELC page.
What is your search process?
We meet with you and talk with key
administrative staff and medical leadership to gather information
and create a strategy to effectively identify candidates to
meet your unique needs.
Our search activity includes networking
calls and letters to potential candidates, detailed interviews,
referencing and credentialling. After we present the slate
of candidates, we work closely with you through the interview
and selection process. For more details on how we conduct
a search, see our Step-by-Step
Strategy page.
How long does the typical search process take?
After we agree about the specifics
of the position and expectations for candidates, the search
phase will take about eight weeks. Therefore, within two months,
you will have in hand the detailed credentials and reference
reports of a slate of candidates to consider for the position.
In the best of circumstances, first
interviews will occur within two to four weeks after the presentation
of candidates. A second visit with the final candidate and
spouse three weeks later is ideal, with an offer tendered
and accepted quickly thereafter. Allowing at least 60 days
for candidate relocation, the whole process can be completed
and a physician executive on board within six months.
How are your fees structured?
The fee for a successful placement
is a percentage of the total first year full time salary.
A retainer is charged at the time a search begins, with a
monthly retainer thereafter until the position is filled or
the full fee is paid. The retainers are included in the total
fee as quoted. Travel and other search expenses are charged
separately at cost.
