With an aging population and lingering public health effects from the Covid-19 pandemic, healthcare needs are more pressing than ever. While other sectors of the job market are still struggling, the healthcare industry has added a staggering 59,000 jobs per month so far this year, according to data from the Labor Department. Many healthcare companies are struggling to hire enough to keep up with the demand, causing a competitive market that favors job-seeking candidates.

To fill their open roles, companies are offering higher pay, comprehensive benefits packages, and impressive sign-on bonuses to job-seekers. Many students are recruited before even graduating as employers seek to scout the newest healthcare professionals.
