Australia's healthcare industry is among the largest sectors in the country's economy and a major employer. As the industry grows and the demand for qualified healthcare professionals increases, employers may find themselves competing for the best candidates.

Healthcare job posting sites allow employers to reach out to potential candidates in this competitive field. To help hire top-quality employees, we've compiled a list of the best medical job posting sites for Australian employers. Our list includes general and niche sites, as well as targeted sites that advertise in-demand healthcare jobs.

Things to Consider When Evaluating Healthcare Job Boards:

Look for job boards that do more than just allow job searching and job listing. One that also offers resources for medical professionals, industry news, and useful tips for employers and employees will be more helpful.
To fill specialized roles, list vacancies on healthcare job boards that target a specific medical sub-field.
When it comes to pricing models, figure out which works best for you: per month or per job post pricing. A job board that offers multiple job postings for a monthly fee may ultimately cost less than a job board that charges a fee per job post.

When you're posting jobs in very competitive hiring markets, you've got to think of your potential applicants as customers that you're advertising to.

Where can I hire healthcare workers offline?

If online hiring isn't working, you might try putting the word out with your current employees, letting them know that you're hiring, and see if they can use their networks to refer employees.
