Healthcare & licensed roles

Collect healthcare credentials before day one

Stop chasing licenses and certificates in the first week. List what each role needs, collect it in the journey, look it up before the offer, and let onboarding pick up the rest.

The short version

Credentials are part of the hiring process, not a first-week chore. Ask for them in the journey and look them up before you make the offer.

List what each role needs

Write the list once per role, so recruiters ask for the same things every time and candidates know what to have ready.

A typical list for a clinical role

  • An active license for your state, with the number.
  • Current certifications the role requires, such as BLS.
  • Any role-specific certificates or training records.
  • Professional references.

Questions, answered

Does a lookup replace our credentialing process?

No. It gives your team the lookup result early, so problems surface before the offer. Your own credentialing rules still apply.

Can candidates upload documents from a phone?

Yes. The document upload step is part of the journey, which works on a phone or laptop.

Is Vouch required?

Collecting documents and references is part of Journeys. License, contact and employer lookups come with Vouch, an add-on.
