Seven Tips for Professionals moving into Management
For professionals exploring a management opportunity, there’s a lot to learn. Keep the following tips from Stacey McCreery, founder of ROI Search and Nicole Harper, director of revenue cycle improvement at Eskenazi Health, in mind as you lay the groundwork for your career move:

Hello to the ROI Search Group Community,

As COVID-19 continues to disrupt our day to day activities, we would like our clients and candidates to know that we at  ROI Search Group  strive to continue to do what we do best. We recognize that with the constantly changing COVID-19 situation around the world, this is an unprecedented time for everyone — a time that, for many, is filled with uncertainty. Our hearts and thoughts go out to each and every one of you.

I appreciate that you will be receiving many letters like this, but as a client who uses our services, I want you to know how we are here during these challenging times. Our focus today is the same as it’s always been — ensuring you have the most reliable support and services for your talent needs, whenever, whatever, and wherever you need our service. That could not be more important than it is now, as this crisis creates an environment where you are likely looking to use our service differently, perhaps working or learning from home. We are taking a range of actions to ensure we continue to meet your needs at this critical time, whether your talent needs are for permanent placement, contract staffing or interim leadership, and/or outplacement services.

As you may know and as a valued client and partner, at ROI Search Group, we already work remotely. Due to the nature of our business, we have access to the best web-based technology through several of our trusted partners: Box , Zoom , and Reciprocal Technologies . Regularly, we are required to connect our clients' out-of-state candidates remotely throughout the interview process until the final stages when in person meetings are requested. Over the next several weeks and for an unknown period of time, we expect our virtual meeting rooms to be a huge benefit as everyone tries to maintain a “business as usual” outlook. I want you to know you have our commitment to continue providing you with the services you depend on. We have implemented our business continuity plan to ensure we provide you assurance, commitment, and service you have always been accustomed to.

First and foremost, our plan ensures the health and safety of our employees, so we can continue to deliver and support the services you count on. Considering the most recent news and announcements from the World Health Organization (WHO) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) , we have temporarily suspended business travel.
 
I wanted to share on behalf of ROI Search Group, we pride ourselves on being flexible and providing unique solutions to our client needs. If we can be of assistance to your organization as we work through the challenges of the pandemic and moving to working in remote environments, please reach out to us. We would be happy to discuss how we might be able to assist and provide additional bandwidth to your team as we navigate these challenges. After all, we are all in this together. 

Warm Regards,
Stacey

ROISG Business Continuity Plan
We continue to monitor the COVID-19 very closely, and in contact with our clients, who are on the front lines. To support our clients, we have numerous clinical roles we are actively recruiting to ensure they have the staff they need to support the patients, which is our mission. We also have opportunities in other industries, such as construction, where the work continues. Our team is working remotely and continues the same support you are accustomed to on a daily basis. You are a very high priority as we know you taking care of the most vulnerable population.

I wanted to take a moment to thank the team at  ROI Search Group  while they are juggling many priorities including their families, they are making the support to our clients a very high priority. As I mentioned today, the work you do matters.

Feel free to look over the career page on our website. We know how important this work is and will continue to support our clients.
