Recruitment Process

The recruitment process is a structured approach to finding and hiring the right candidates for job roles. It begins with identifying staffing needs, followed by planning a recruitment strategy, sourcing and screening candidates, conducting interviews, and making job offers. Once a candidate is selected, medical checks and documentation are completed, leading to visa processing and final deployment. An efficient recruitment process ensures timely hiring, quality talent acquisition, and alignment with organizational goals—crucial for success in competitive sectors like healthcare.

Recruitment Process – Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Assignments
   The recruitment journey begins when client hospitals or healthcare organizations share job vacancies or manpower needs with 360 Recruitment Group. These assignments define the required qualifications, experience levels, job roles, and timelines, setting the foundation for a customized recruitment strategy tailored to the client’s specific workforce requirements.
2. Recruitment Strategy
   Based on the assignment, a strategic plan is developed to source the right candidates. This includes defining recruitment channels, timelines, screening criteria, and exam requirements. The strategy ensures alignment with both the client’s expectations and international standards for healthcare staffing, ensuring quality and efficiency throughout the process.
3. Screen Candidates
   Potential candidates are sourced and screened for eligibility. Their educational background, nursing experience, language proficiency, and career goals are evaluated. This step ensures only qualified professionals move forward, saving time and increasing the chances of successful placement in international healthcare facilities, especially in the UK or Middle East.
4. Check Referral
   Reference checks are conducted to verify the professional background, work ethics, and clinical performance of candidates. Former employers or supervisors are contacted to confirm the authenticity of credentials. This step builds trust with clients and ensures that only credible, experienced nurses are shortlisted for overseas opportunities.
5. Shortlisted Candidates
   Candidates who meet all criteria and pass the screening and referral check are shortlisted. These individuals are considered the most suitable based on their qualifications, skills, and alignment with job requirements. Shortlisting narrows down the pool to the top talent ready for further preparation and interview rounds.
6. Candidates Preparation
   Selected candidates undergo focused training and coaching. This includes preparation for exams like IELTS/OET, CBT, OSCE, Prometric, and interview skills. The goal is to ensure candidates are fully ready—academically and professionally—for international placements, increasing their confidence and success rate in interviews and licensing exams.
7. Interview
   Shortlisted and trained candidates attend interviews with international healthcare employers. Interviews may be virtual or face-to-face and assess clinical knowledge, communication skills, and cultural adaptability. 360 Recruitment Group offers mock interview support to help candidates perform at their best and secure job offers with top institutions.
8. Job Offer
   Successful candidates receive formal job offers outlining salary, job role, contract duration, and additional benefits such as accommodation or travel support. The recruitment team guides candidates through offer evaluation, acceptance, and necessary documentation, ensuring clarity and transparency throughout the hiring process for both parties.
9. Medical Fitness Test
   A mandatory medical fitness test is conducted to ensure candidates meet the health standards required for working abroad. Approved medical centers carry out these tests. The report is submitted as part of visa processing and employer requirements, ensuring candidates are physically fit for clinical roles overseas.
10. Documentation – HRD/Embassy
    Essential documents, including educational certificates and identification, are verified, attested by HRD (Human Resource Development), and authenticated at the embassy. This step ensures that all paperwork is valid and accepted by immigration and licensing authorities, facilitating smooth visa processing and legal compliance.
11. Visa/Administration Process
    The visa application is submitted, and all administrative tasks are handled, including travel planning, employment contracts, and employer coordination. 360 Recruitment Group ensures a hassle-free experience by assisting candidates throughout the process, maintaining accuracy in documentation, and ensuring timelines are met efficiently and professionally.
12. Deployment of Candidates
    Once the visa is approved, the final step is deployment. Candidates are assisted with travel arrangements and arrival formalities. 360 Recruitment Group remains in touch post-deployment, ensuring a smooth transition into the new workplace and providing continued support for a successful international nursing career.
