How To Find The Perfect Practitioner
The day has finally come, clinics are re-opening and things are slowly returning to normal. For many clinics, this will mean an influx of patients, which is excellent but may be overwhelming if you don’t have enough staff or the correct staff.
Clinic People are here to help and advise you on how to find the perfect practitioner for your clinic.
Have clear expectations!
In a dream world – you would be able to find an all singing, all dancing practitioner, who’s the perfect fit for your team. Sometimes, this dream can become a reality and you will find a practitioner with the perfect experience for you.
However, a lot of the time, this is not always the case. If you’re struggling to find a clinician to fit the bill, you might need to ask yourself – ‘am I asking for the impossible?’.
If you are advertising for a full time practitioner, you might find that a lot of qualified candidates are put off. Most aesthetic professionals have other jobs and do aesthetics part time, therefore advertising solely for permanent, full time professionals may not be the best approach. By being open to the type of employment and seeing what people can make work you may find your perfect practitioner!
Be pro-active!
If you have posted your job advertisement on all platforms and STILL have no suitable candidates, try revisiting the job post. See how you can make it more appealing, make it clear what you can offer the candidate, rather than just making demands of the candidates.
Sell your clinic! Why is it a great place to work? What benefits will candidates get if they become part of the team? Make your job look like an opportunity which can’t be missed!
If you are still having no luck, try LinkedIn! Make your account attractive and appealing and connect with people and approach them about the opportunity!
Be open to training!
Finding a practitioner who has all the experience you desire can be difficult! So be open to the prospect of getting someone on board who is less experienced and invest in them!
Hiring someone with less experience can seem daunting but can be a real positive!
You can mold them to the needs of your clinic and train them how you see fit!
If you find a highly skilled practitioner who has the right attitude for your team, invest in them! If a practitioner has training and experience that can be transferable, it can be straightforward to get them up-to-speed with the specialties of your clinic.
Try using a recruitment agency!
Recruitment agencies can be a useful tool when it comes to finding the perfect candidate. Clinic People are experts in aesthetic recruitment and specialize in matching clinics to clinicians.
We have a network of talented professionals looking for all kinds of opportunities and we make sure all our candidates are qualified and safe injectors.
Using a recruitment agency has no real downside! Most agencies will only charge a fee if they find you a successful candidate. So, what are you waiting for?

Clinic People's Top 5 CV Tips!
Writing a CV can seem like a daunting task. How do you condense your professional life into a Word Document? Well, fear not! Clinic People are here to help you! We’ll ensure you create a CV that will stand out from the crowd and find your dream role! Sounds good? Read on to find out some winning tips from the trade…
1. Make it short and snappy!
It’s vital to write a CV that’s concise, clear and to the point! Make sure your CV is easy to navigate – with each section laid out in an easy, clear and logical order. This way you will naturally guide the reader on a journey and leave them with a clear, positive judgement of you.
A CV really should not be longer than 2 pages! On average, employers spend 8 seconds looking at a CV – they want to see the key points, why you have the perfect experience, and are the ideal candidate for the role.
2. Make it relevant!
Take out things that are irrelevant – unless directly relatable to the position you’re applying for. Yes that’s right, it’s time to take out the volunteering you did whilst at school!
Tailor your CV for the job you are applying for! We’ve all made a one-size-fits all CV and sent it out for multiple jobs. But that won’t make you stand out, it’s time to get specific! Employers want to see why you are perfect for their particular role. Take the time to customize your CV to each role you apply for. Research the company and use the job description to work out what skills and experience you should point out to them.
3. Make it personal!
Include a personal statement at the start of your CV to emphasize to the employer why you are special, what you can bring to their company and detail how your experience makes you the perfect candidate.
Job hunting is difficult and competitive, you could be up against multiple people who have similar experience and skill set. So make your CV personal and likeable! Tell the employer who you are and why you are the perfect candidate for the job – find your USP and tell them about it. Find out what makes you stand out from the crowd and shout about it!
4. Make it look good!
You could also get creative with it! Use a funky design and you could include a picture of yourself for an extra personal touch. It will make you more memorable and make more of an impression on the employer. However, remember not to go too left field, remain professional with your design, and ask yourself is this the type of recruiter who would appreciate comic sans or Word Art? Probably not.
Presentation is key and first impressions start with your CV’s appearance, so make it count! Take time to make it look professional and unique! Use short sentences and bullet points to make it clear and easy for the employer to read.
5. Make use of key words!
Keywords are very important! Especially if you are uploading your CV to job sites where recruiter’s can find you. Employers and recruiters use key words to search for candidates, so make sure you’re using them! Use the job description and company website for specific words the employer may be looking for.
