Locum tenens work is detail-heavy. Between licensing, credentialing, schedules, contracts, and logistics, having the right support matters. When things go smoothly, it’s often because a recruiter stayed organized, communicated clearly, and followed through, or because an agency handled the process efficiently and transparently.
This year, locum tenens professionals have an opportunity to recognize that kind of support.
The TalentTrack Awards include two clinician-voted categories — Recruiter of the Year and Provider’s Choice — giving locum providers a direct way to acknowledge recruiters and agencies that made their work easier.
Why Your Input Matters
Locum tenens professionals know the difference between a recruiter who manages details well and one who creates unnecessary friction.
You know who:
- sets clear expectations
- respects your time
- handles credentialing and scheduling proactively
- stays available when questions come up
The clinician-voted TalentTrack Awards are based on that firsthand experience. They aren’t about rankings or volume. They’re about real-world execution and professional support.
If someone helped make your locum journey a little bit easier, this is a great opportunity to shout them out!
Recruiter of the Year
The Recruiter of the Year Award recognizes recruiters who consistently provide strong support to locum tenens providers.
That might include:
- clear communication around contracts and timelines
- proactive coordination of licensing and credentialing
- responsiveness before and during assignments
- follow-through on details that matter
If a recruiter made your locum work easier, or simply did their job well, you can nominate them for this award.
Submit a nomination for the “Recruiter of the Year” award.
Provider’s Choice Award
The Provider’s Choice Award recognizes staffing agencies that locum tenens professionals trust and choose to work with again.
This award reflects the full working relationship, from initial outreach to assignment completion. Agencies recognized here are those that operate efficiently, communicate clearly, and respect clinicians’ experience and time.
If there’s an agency you’d work with again without hesitation, this is your chance to say so.
Submit a nomination for the “Provider’s Choice” award.
