# How to find global eyecare recruitment

Finding an international recruitment agency specialising in vision and eyecare roles can be challenging. Whether you’re an eyecare professional looking for your next role or a company looking to fill an eyecare position, it’s essential that you know where to look for global eyecare recruitment.

In this guide, our eyecare recruitment experts will cover everything you need to know about global eyecare recruitment, including:

- What is global eyecare recruitment?
- What is the global eyecare recruitment process?
- How to find a global eyecare recruitment agency

 

## What is global eyecare recruitment?

Eyecare recruitment is the process of finding, selecting, evaluating, and hiring suitable candidates from across the world. This could be for a clinical role (such as an ophthalmologist) or a non-clinical optical role (such as an optical marketing director). High-level or executive positions are often recruited internationally to ensure they are filled by exceptional candidates.

Some eyecare organisations might handle their recruitment internally, but many will enlist the help of a specialist [eye care recruitment agency](https://visionexecutives.com/about-us). This is particularly important when recruiting internationally, as a specialist agency will have the knowledge and connections to recruit high-calibre international candidates.

 

## Global eyecare recruitment process

The eyecare recruitment process is similar whether you’re recruiting internationally or domestically. The process will also vary from country to country and organisation to organisation. However, here are the most common steps in the international eyecare recruitment process.

### 1. Identify your recruitment needs

The first and most crucial step is to identify your hiring needs. For example, you might need to fill a position because of a vacancy or promotion, or you might need to create a new position to meet the demands of your growing organisation. This should give you a clear idea of the optical role (or roles) you need to recruit for.

### 2. Decide on a recruitment plan

The next step should be deciding how to recruit for these eyecare positions. This includes deciding if you’ll recruit domestically and internationally or just domestically. You’ll want to consider how scarce the skills are for the required role. Recruiting for roles internationally and domestically gives you the best chance of finding qualified candidates with the skills you require and is recommended for high-level positions.

You should also decide whether to use a recruitment agency to streamline the process or if you have sufficient knowledge, expertise, and staff to handle it yourself.

### 3. Outline the skills, experience and education required for each role

Before you create a job posting, you’ll need a clear vision of what is needed for each role you’re recruiting for. This will include:

- The job title
- Responsibilities
- Necessary experience
- Necessary qualifications and education
- Salary and benefits of the role, including relocation support for international candidates
- Whether the role is open to international candidates or not

International candidates might have different qualifications or educational backgrounds, so you must consider this when creating your job description.

### 4. Create and advertise the eyecare position

The next step will be to create and advertise your eyecare position. If you’re handling the recruitment process internally, you should post the advert on your company website, social media, and international job search sites, such as [Indeed](https://uk.indeed.com/hire?co=GB&hl=en&from=gnav-employer--allspark--employer).

If you’ve hired an eyecare recruitment agency, you’ll need to share the job description with them so they can advertise it on your behalf.

### 5. Actively recruit candidates

If you’re recruiting for a high-level eyecare position, simply advertising the role might not be enough. You should also actively recruit candidates by contacting qualified professionals through sites like [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/).

If you’re working with a recruitment agency, they’ll have a network of suitable candidates to approach with your job offer. For example, Vision Executives has a LinkedIn network of over [10,000 eye care professionals](https://www.linkedin.com/company/vision-executives/) across 30 countries and a database of over 1,500 [pre-qualified candidates](https://visionexecutives.com/our-candidates).

### 6. Review applications and interview suitable candidates

Once you’ve reviewed the applications and shortlisted the most suitable candidates, it’s time to interview them. This should involve asking them about their experience, qualifications, and career goals.

When interviewing international candidates, it’s essential to ask whether they are legally allowed to work in your country or need to be sponsored. You should also use this opportunity to discuss the relocation requirements and what support your company is offering.

### 7. Choose the best candidate

Based on their application and interview, you should choose the most qualified candidate who best aligns with your company’s values.

### 8. Make a job offer and negotiate their salary

Now it’s time to formally offer the eyecare job and begin salary negotiations. You should provide them with more information about the role, including the exact salary, working hours, and start date. This gives them all the information they need before accepting the position. Salary will likely need to be negotiated by both parties, especially for management or executive roles.

If you’re hiring an international candidate who is relocating, you should begin any necessary visa applications as quickly as possible.

 

## How to find a global eyecare recruitment agency

Many companies hire a specialist eyecare recruitment agency, especially if they want to fill high-level positions or recruit internationally. Optical recruitment agencies will have specialist consultants with in-depth knowledge of the eyecare industry and will be able to streamline the process as much as possible.

If you’re looking to recruit for a non-clinical eyecare, the team at Vision Executives can help.
