Healthcare Recruiting Specialists

Chicago Healthcare Recruiting Specialists is a healthcare recruitment firm based in Chicago, Illinois, serving the Midwest region with deep expertise in healthcare executive and mid-level placements. Founded in 2008, the company has built a reputation for placing qualified healthcare professionals into facilities across the Chicago metropolitan area and surrounding Midwest territories. The company emphasises that its strength lies in firsthand local knowledge and community understanding, enabling precise candidate-facility matching that national agencies cannot deliver.

The company specialises in executive and leadership positions including Director of Nursing, Assistant Director of Nursing, Nursing Home Administrators, Physician Assistants, Nurse Practitioners, and Social Workers. Chicago Healthcare Recruiting Specialists works with both large healthcare systems and small-to-mid-sized facilities, emphasising that company size does not determine quality of service or consultant attention. The organisation highlights its process: listening to understand client culture and candidate aspirations, searching extensive databases, and arranging matches with a 90-day guarantee allowing clients to seek alternative candidates without additional fees.

The firm reports over 1,000 successful placements and partnerships with 100+ healthcare facilities. Leadership emphasises flexibility, allowing clients to engage multiple recruitment agencies simultaneously rather than enforcing exclusivity agreements. This approach accelerates hiring and expands candidate options. Led by President and Owner Brad Olswang, a graduate of Indiana University and Yeshiva University with background as a service coordinator in healthcare, Chicago Healthcare Recruiting Specialists combines industry knowledge with recruiter expertise.
