A Healthy Community Depends on Great Nurses
A Healthy Community Depends on Great Nurses
The United States is facing a critical staffing crisis in healthcare. Despite healthcare becoming the largest employment sector in the country, we are moving toward a projected shortfall of over 1 million nurses by 2025. While demand for care continues rising, the supply of qualified clinicians isn't keeping up.
The consequences are serious: studies show that medication errors increase by 20% and mortality rates rise by 4%when nurses are stretched thin. Burnout is soaring, and tragically, nurses face suicide rates nearly twice the national average.
Hospitals need better ways to recruit and retain the right talent. The old hiring model—based on outdated job boards and agency fees—simply doesn’t work anymore. It takes 90 days on average to hire a permanent nurse, while qualified candidates get ghosted or left in the dark.
That’s why Goodwork exists.
A Smarter Way to Hire
Goodwork is not another job board. It’s a healthcare hiring marketplace, built by clinicians and recruiters who lived the pain of broken systems. Instead of charging upfront fees or letting anyone spam candidates, Goodwork only charges when a clinician is actually hired—and splits the fee with the nurse.
Our AI-powered tools automate everything from candidate screening to matching and messaging, giving hospitals a personalized shortlist of qualified nurses. Instead of nurses applying to jobs, hospitals apply to nurses.
25x Faster. 17% Higher Pay. 15% Shorter Commutes.
With over 18,000 jobs currently live on the marketplace, hospitals using Goodwork are hiring permanent nurses in less than 30 days, three times faster than the national average. Nurses hired through Goodwork see an average salary boost of 17%, while cutting commute times by 15%.
“To deliver excellent care, we must have the right talent. Through Goodwork, we consistently fill permanent roles in less than three weeks.”
Goodwork is already helping leading health systems across California, Texas, and New York connect with high-quality nurses in record time. And the experience is just as powerful for nurses.
“I received three interviews within a week on Goodwork. All the offers were excellent. I chose a role that pays more than my best travel contract ever did.”
From Hiring Tool to Career Community
Goodwork is scaling fast. We’ve processed over 131,000 applications, trained 133 recruiters, and helped fill roles at 1,126 clinical facilities. After becoming the SIA Fastest Growing Company in 2024, we’re expanding our reach—and our vision.
Backed by cultural leadership funds, healthtech investors, and founders of top marketplaces, Goodwork is growing from a hiring engine into a career-long support system for clinicians. With built-in reputation tracking, messaging, and job search automation, clinicians can stop scrolling and let their AI-powered assistant do the work.
Hospitals get transparency. Nurses get respect. And everyone saves time.
