Nursing Assistant Linda Waller monitors Jack Koesler's blood pressure during spinal cord injury rehabilitation at McGuire Medical Center. A trip to Tuesday's Medical Job Fair may be just what the doctor ordered. The medical industry right now is facing a tight market.
Nurses are in demand.
Not only does it appear to be a good time for those looking to switch jobs, but also for Medical Job Fair exhibitors hoping to attract employees. Ward said job candidates had been telephoning her throughout February about the job fair, instead of just prior to it as they normally do. Some of the exhibitors include Virginia Commonwealth University's Medical College of Virginia, Cumberland Hospital, Maxim Healthcare Services, Central State Hospital, Kelly Services, Trigon, Ashland Convalescent Center, Family Care Services, Medical Office Services, IVNA Home Health Care, Nurse Finders and Hunter Holmes McGuire Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center. Haberstich said the national company has offices in Northern Virginia and Virginia Beach in addition to Richmond. I want people who look professional who are going to represent Maxim.
