Recruitment And Selection - Medical

Introduction

The organization, Singapore Medical Group (SMG) has plans to expand its business into building a new private hospital in the town area of Singapore, which specializes in cancer treatment and research.

Staffing Need

The human resource department is currently looking into filling vacancies for the following positions:
- Cancer Specialist (Oncologist)
- General Practitioners
- Nurses
- Radiographer
- Clinical Researcher

Staffing Issues

The organizational goal is to become the global leader in cancer treatment and research. In this specialized area of health services, the organization is looking toward recruiting exceptional talents to develop the hospital.

Being in the medical industry for the past 20 years and having established their name as one of the top medical centre groups, SMG has a pool of talent, which is currently available to lead the hospital. The organization is looking to fill middle and lower level positions for the opening of the hospital in 2010.

Staffing Strategy

Different staffing strategy would need to be adopted for the different types of vacancy to be filled. Due to the highly specialized nature of the jobs, there is also a need for person/ job match before a person/ organization match, specific KSAOs and staff with exceptional quality since the organization is looking to become the best in Singapore.

In the 2 years before the official opening of the new hospital, the organization can overstuff to stockpile on talent and to train them before re-deploying them to the various vacancies in the new hospital.

Recruitment Planning

As this is an expansion of the chain of medical centres, it would be better to have in-house recruitment to meet the specific needs of the organization. Centralized recruitment would also be more effective to align policies and also to save on administrative and other cost due to economies of scale.
