Recruitment Process

Identify the Healthcare Needs of the Destination Country

Before initiating the recruitment process, we assess the specific healthcare needs of the destination country. These needs could vary based on:

  • Demand for particular roles (e.g., nurses, physicians, healthcare assistants, etc.)
  • Required qualifications and skills
  • Language proficiency requirements (e.g., English or other relevant languages)

For example, if a country is facing a shortage of registered nurses, the focus would be on recruiting nurses with appropriate certifications and experience.

Partner with Licensed Recruitment Agencies

Sri Lanka has a number of licensed recruitment agencies authorized to send healthcare professionals abroad. We have partnered with these agencies to ensure the process is legal and streamlined. These agencies help with:

  • Identifying qualified candidates
  • Managing the recruitment process (from shortlisting to interviews)
  • Ensuring candidates meet regulatory requirements
  • Managing paperwork, contracts, and other legal obligations


    Candidate Selection and Interviews

    After candidates are identified, employers typically conduct interviews, either virtually or in- person (through us and recruitment drives in Sri Lanka). The process generally involves:

    • Screening based on qualifications, certifications, and experience
    • Language proficiency tests if required (e.g., English or destination country’s language)
    • Medical and background checks


    Headhunters International, We assist in the preparation of candidates for interviews by providing training or orientation about job expectations and cultural adaptation.

    Visa Processing and Documentation

    Once selected, We support healthcare professionals to apply for work visas and meet the entry requirements of the destination country. This process usually involves:

    • Submitting job offer letters
    • Documentation of educational qualifications and professional licenses 
    • Health checks and police clearance certificates
    • Legalization of documents (if required by the destination country)

      Relocation and Integration Support

      Once visas are approved and documentation is complete, healthcare professionals can relocate to the destination country. We offer relocation assistance, which may include:

      • Travel arrangements
      • Assistance with accommodation
      • Orientation programs in the destination country to help new recruits settle in
      • If required we provide support for families if professionals are relocating with dependents.
