What are the most challenging professions in healthcare to fill? Nurses. Although the post-covid era has boosted nurse recruitment worldwide, it is becoming more and more difficult for healthcare recruiters to attract and hire nurses. Nurses account for the largest profession in the healthcare sector, yet the increasing demand for nurses makes the current shortage even more challenging for recruiters. With 194,500 new RN positions being created each year until 2030, there are not enough qualified candidates in the job pool to fill these positions. Nurses today are highly specialized and work in a number of locations, including hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, long-term care clinics, urgent care facilities, and even drug stores, making the competition for skilled nurses even tougher.
