Looking for effective ways to secure a chiropractic job? Here are the answers you’ve been looking for.
Whether you are beginning or continuing your career, follow this guide to learn about finding chiropractor job openings, obtaining help throughout the job-seeking process, and standing out to employers.
1. Search Chiropractor Job Openings
Browsing through postings on job sites is a great place to start, but it must be done correctly.
Many people’s first instinct is to run a quick Google search for “chiropractic jobs near me.” But, as you may already know, an overwhelming number of websites will appear with flashy headlines like “Make 120k with these jobs hiring NOW”.
Although it seems tempting, general job sites will often filter in postings that are unrelated or jobs that paid to appear higher in searches. This can be time-consuming to weed through.
Additionally, these sites manage so many categories of jobs that they do not give users enough options within their specific field.
Another issue is that employers could post jobs under a slightly different title than you are searching for. For example, you may be looking up “chiropractic associate,” and there is a job called “chiropractic physician” that may not appear in your search.
Whether you are looking to be an Associate Doctor, Chiropractic Assistant, or a Locum Chiropractor, it is important to seek chiropractic job openings on a website that specifically caters to chiropractors such as Chiro Match Makers.
With just a simple search, you may find your dream career to apply to. The chiropractor jobs are already broken up into categories, so you will not be missing out on a post. Not to mention, you will get an inside look at salary, job duties, location, desired qualifications, etc.
If your perfect match is not listed in these search results, there is nothing to worry about. Some people would love to help you and are only a quick step away.
2. Speak with a Professional
Chiropractic employment agency professionals are life-savers when it comes to helping you reach your professional goals. You can find these recruiters through staffing agencies.
Before calling a professional, take some time to self-reflect.
What are some things that you require in a job? What about things you prefer but are not necessary? Remember to not only focus on being desirable to employers but also make sure the company is desirable to you.
Here are some questions to consider. Try writing down your answers:
- What is the minimum salary that you are willing to work for?
- Do you require a job in a certain area, or are you willing to relocate?
- What benefits do you need your employer to provide (health insurance, paid time off, etc.)?
A professional would be happy to help you think through these decisions, but give it a try on your own first.
The next step is to call the staffing agency.
Often there will be a list of recruiters on the agency’s website. This shows how knowledgeable the recruiters are and what they have experience in. You may choose to ask for a specific person to speak with.
During your phone call, you will be guided through the options you have, given your skills, experience, and preferences. Remember- these professionals work with offices that are searching for chiropractic coverage. Simply put, they have the connections you need.
Feeling lost in the process? Another benefit to physically speaking to someone is that your questions can be easily answered. A hiring professional can let you in on advice, talk about the hiring process and the best ways to get chiropractic jobs and answer questions about what employers are looking for in their associate chiropractor.
You will get information about chiropractic employment quickly, and you will know it is accurate.
3. Submit Your Resume
Staffing agencies can target desired qualities in both the employer and the job seeker. They specialize in creating matches based on these factors.
When you submit a well-put-together resume, your qualifications stand out to recruiters. This way, they can match you up with employers and get the hiring process rolling.
Ready to put together that killer resume? Here are some things to keep in mind:
1. Keep it to 1 page.
You want employers to see the most important aspects of your skills and experience at a glance. Having a long resume does not make you seem more qualified; it just makes it more difficult to see your qualifications.
2. Use a Template
Resume template websites can show off your skills in an organized way. Try choosing one that bolds or highlights your most desirable traits to draw attention to them.
3. Use Numbers and Facts
You want to avoid general phrases such as “saw patients for chiropractic needs.” Instead, try “saw over 25 patients a day and treated issues such as scoliosis, fibromyalgia, and disc pain. I performed treatments such as…”
Even in entry-level chiropractor positions, use specific facts about your training and what you learned.
Checking out trustworthy websites for resume tips can give you a more in-depth understanding of which sections to include and how to properly state your skills.
An extraordinary perk to having your resume on file with a staffing agency is that it can keep attracting potential employers long after it has been submitted.
If a chiropractic employment agency begins working with a new employer and your resume is on file, you could be one of the first people considered for a position at that company.
