Start with the vacancy your practice actually needs to fill

A new graduate, an experienced general practitioner and a clinical leader need different search briefs. Tell us which responsibilities cannot be covered by the current team, which can be taught and how the new hire will be supported.

  • Permanent associate veterinarian recruitment
  • Veterinary specialist recruitment
  • Medical director and regional leadership search

Keep the clinical and employment brief together

A job description alone rarely explains what makes a practice a workable next move. Include the appointment schedule, support team, clinical equipment, compensation structure and expectations for surgery, weekends and after-hours work. For San Antonio-area searches, specify the actual clinic location and acceptable working pattern.

What happens after your inquiry

Business Executive Group reviews the employer brief and discusses search fit, scope and commercial terms with you. Placement fees, timelines, replacement provisions and candidate screening should be agreed before a search starts. Submitting an inquiry does not commit your practice to a placement agreement.

Employer questions

Veterinary recruiting questions

How does milestone billing work?

Agree the role, estimated fee range, billable milestones and payment terms before the search begins. Recruiting uses an hourly, pay-as-you-go model within the agreed range. BEGHR’s published placement process starts billing after applicants are sent. Invoices follow the agreed cadence, at least monthly during billable service delivery. BEGHR handles client billing and account questions.

Do we pay if a search does not result in a hire?

Milestone billing pays for agreed work as the search progresses, so completed billable milestones may still be payable without a placement. Your client agreement specifies the billing triggers, amounts, due dates and any cancellation terms.

Where can we see our placement price?

Select your role, complete the hiring questions and submit your employer contact details through the pricing form to receive an estimated fee range. BEGHR confirms the role classification, final fee and payment milestones before you engage the service.

How long does placement take?

BEGHR’s placement timeframe is 23–55 days. Timing depends on the role, candidate availability and the employer’s hiring process.

How does BEGHR pricing compare with contingency recruiting?

BEGHR offers placement at typically 50% less than contingency recruiting and 50% off second and subsequent hires for the same role. Use the pricing form for an estimate and confirm your fee and repeat-hire eligibility before starting.

What is the placement success rate?

BEGHR reports 80% placement success across its placement service. This provider-wide figure is not a city-specific or veterinary-only result and does not guarantee an individual hiring outcome.

Who receives my employer inquiry?

Business Executive Group receives your contact information, selected roles, qualification answers, placement estimate and the originating website and page through its existing BEGHR lead intake. This is an employer inquiry, not a candidate job application.

How are placement fees confirmed?

The instant-pricing form uses BEGHR’s role categories and current retail ranges to show an estimate after you submit your employer details. The provider confirms the actual category, scope, payment milestones and commercial terms before a search engagement begins.

Does a listed community have a separate recruiting office?

No. Community coverage describes the location of a potential employer search. It does not represent a local office, an existing client or a claim that a candidate is already available.
