DMH is one of two hospitals is the community hospital in this area.

Largent indicated there are a number of challenges recruiting to this part of the state; one being they are not quite close enough Chicago. This hospital was looking to fill a provider position for 6 months before contracting with The Hire Connection. Largent said they do outsource quite a few of their recruiting efforts, but primarily with contingent firms. She got tired of wading through a long list of candidates who were not even close to being a fit for their opportunities. When asked what she loved about working with The Hire Connection, she said, “even when they didn’t have candidate activity, they always kept us informed on what was going on”. We asked if she would use The Hire Connection again, she quickly said, “I already have, I just signed a contract for 3 new searches”. She would recommend The Hire Connection to anyone who needs help with recruiting.
