Pricing
Medical.Careers is built around a simple principle: the platform is free for healthcare candidates. Clinicians do not pay to search jobs, view listings, apply to positions, save searches, or receive job alerts. Employer pricing is structured to support a free entry point so smaller practices can post without commitment, with paid options available for higher-volume employers, premium placement, and bulk import.
For Candidates: Always Free
Every candidate-facing surface on Medical.Careers is free to use. There is no subscription tier, no paywall on applications, no charge for premium content, and no required signup to search jobs. The full medical careers blog, the specialties career guide, and the jobs index are open to everyone. Saved searches and job alerts are also free.
This is intentional. Healthcare careers are too consequential — for the clinician and for patients — to gate behind subscription friction. Our incentives are aligned with the broader MedicalRecruiting.com network: when clinicians find the right roles with the right employers, the network succeeds, which lets us keep the candidate side fully open.
For Employers: Free First Posting
Healthcare employers can post their first job listing on Medical.Careers free for 30 days. The free posting includes:
- Listing on Medical.Careers and visibility across relevant network properties
- Standard search visibility for relevant candidate filters
- Direct apply through the platform
- Email alerts to matching candidates with active job alerts
- Basic applicant tracking through the employer dashboard
This entry point exists so that practices, small groups, and first-time posters can validate the platform without commitment.
Paid Options for Higher-Volume Employers
Employers who post regularly, manage multiple openings, or want enhanced visibility can move to paid options through MedicalRecruiting.com. Common upgrades include:
- Premium placement — boosted positioning for time-sensitive roles or competitive specialty markets
- Multi-listing packages — bundled posting credits at lower per-listing cost
- Bulk import — programmatic ingestion from your careers page or ATS so your listings stay current with no manual effort
- Sourcing support — access to MedicalRecruiting.com's recruiter network for hard-to-fill specialty and geographic searches
- Credentialing and contracting support — for employers running active physician, NP, PA, and CRNA searches that need to move quickly to start dates
Pricing for these options is configured per employer based on listing volume, specialty mix, and any sourcing or credentialing services included. Employers can request a specific quote from the post-job or employer dashboard surfaces.
What You Are Actually Paying For
The value of an employer subscription on Medical.Careers is rooted in candidate quality, not just listing distribution. Every listing flows into a candidate audience that explicitly came to a medical-only platform — clinicians, advanced practice providers, allied health professionals, behavioral health clinicians, and healthcare administrators. That audience is more concentrated and better-qualified than the same volume of impressions on a horizontal job board, which translates into higher applicant relevance, lower time-to-fill, and reduced screening overhead. Premium placement and sourcing add reach when a role is competitive; bulk import and ATS integration save operational time when listing volume is high.
Refunds and Cancellation
Employer subscriptions can be cancelled at any time through the dashboard. We do not lock employers into multi-year contracts as a default. Refund handling for paid placement and sourcing services follows the terms of each specific employer agreement; questions can be directed through the contact channel on our about page.
Frequently Asked Questions About Pricing
Is Medical.Careers free for healthcare candidates?
Yes. Medical.Careers is completely free for healthcare professionals. There is no subscription, no premium tier, no paywall on job applications, and no required signup to search and apply to roles. Our incentives are aligned with the candidate through the broader MedicalRecruiting.com network rather than through subscription fees.
How much does it cost employers to post a job?
Employers can post their first healthcare job listing for free for 30 days. Pricing for additional listings, premium placement, and bulk import packages is handled through MedicalRecruiting.com, the employer-side property in our network. Employers can request specific pricing through the post-job and employer dashboard surfaces on Medical.Careers.
Are there hidden fees for candidates who apply through Medical.Careers?
No. Candidates never pay to search, view, or apply to jobs. If you choose to engage directly with a recruiter you meet through a Medical.Careers listing, that recruiter relationship is governed separately, and the recruiter is paid by the employer — not by you.
Do candidates need to subscribe to receive job alerts?
No. Job alerts are free. You can save filter combinations (provider type, specialty, location, employment type) and receive notifications when new matching positions post, all without paid subscription.
What do employers actually get for the price they pay?
Employer packages include posting on Medical.Careers and across relevant network sites, candidate visibility within the MedicalRecruiting.com sourcing pipeline, optional premium placement, applicant management tooling, and access to credentialing and contracting support if needed. Specific feature mix depends on the package selected.
