Ensuring Candidate Quality

BlueSky ensures that all potential employees are screened through our’ internal vetting process to ensure that their skills, experiences, and information are accurate to what is represented. Standard evaluations include detailed specifics on a candidate’s related experience and the number of times they have completed similar projects. We assess soft skills that evaluate their communication skills, level of professionalism, comprehension, friendliness, cooperative nature and attitude

We believe these evaluations, which are performed by seasoned BlueSky employees with expertise in each area, are key to providing only the very best and most qualified resources to represent us. We understand the time that our clients invest within the candidate hiring process is valuable so we work diligently to provide more visibility into a particular resource’s skill set prior to the interview stage in order to maximize time within the interview and shorten the overall candidate selection period. Examples of other documents that we would typically share with a hiring manager would include specific EMR/EHR product experience matrices, detailed skill set questionnaires, and technical vetting forms.

To consistently find and hire the most qualified talent, BlueSky utilizes methodologies besides technical skill assessments and behavioral assessments to obtain professional reference checks, and credential verifications. Our recruiting process incorporates one or more of the following techniques to identify excellence:

  • Proven performance on past engagements (this is our top preference)
  • Technical screens by proven consultants that have already demonstrated excellence
  • Referrals provided by proven consultants that have already demonstrated excellence
  • Reference screening by trusted professionals that can speak to previous assignments
  • Technical and Functional Skills testing and vetting
  • Evaluating resource credentials and making comparisons to proven consultants
