A birth care center needed a full-time delivery midwife who could meet clinical expectations, handle the demands of the role, and fit the needs of its birthing center operations.
MedSquirrels provided a direct hire recruitment solution that helped the birth center identify qualified talent. The facility retained responsibility for payroll, onboarding, and compliance. The result was a focused recruiting experience built around the clinic’s specific requirements, with candidate profiles typically delivered within three to five business days.
The Challenge
The birth center needed a delivery midwife who could meet the practical demands of a specialized clinical environment. Several staffing requirements made a targeted recruitment approach important.
Specialized clinical experience
The role required relevant healthcare experience and an understanding of birth center operations.
Physical ability confirmation
The facility needed candidates to confirm they could safely perform the physical requirements of the position.
Complete candidate visibility
The recruiting team wanted to review full resumes and candidate profiles before investing time in interviews.
Lack of flexible interview options
The clinical recruiters do not have the ability to conduct multiple rounds of interviews on flexible times by video or in person.
Unpredictable staffing costs
Because payroll, onboarding, and compliance were handled separately, an ongoing hourly staffing model was not the right fit.
The solution
MedSquirrels structured the recruitment process around the pharmacy’s specific hiring requirements, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all staffing approach.
The direct hire approach combined targeted candidate sourcing with a structured hiring process, helping the pharmacy identify qualified professionals while keeping employment operations and workforce management straightforward.
Targeted pharmacy sourcing
Recruiters focused on identifying pharmacy professionals with the required sterile compounding experience and qualifications for the Pharmacist in Charge role.
Comprehensive candidate screening
Applicants were evaluated for relevant experience, qualifications, availability, and role fit before being presented to the pharmacy for consideration.
Streamlined recruitment support
Candidate profiles, interview coordination, feedback, selection, and onboarding were managed through a structured recruitment workflow, reducing the administrative burden on the pharmacy team.
The process
Targeted candidate sourcing
The recruitment process focused on identifying healthcare professionals who matched the clinical and operational requirements of the delivery midwife role.

“The hospital valued a recruitment process that understood the importance of clinical fit, candidate transparency, and role-specific screening.
The experience reinforced a practical lesson for healthcare employers: specialized hiring works better when recruiters understand the actual demands of the position and give hiring teams enough information to make confident decisions.”
