Virelia Health connects Healthcare Recruiting Assistants with remote opportunities across healthcare organizations — hospitals, health systems, medical groups, staffing agencies, and healthcare recruiting teams.
We are seeking motivated Remote Healthcare Recruiting Assistants for entry-level and early-career opportunities supporting healthcare recruiting across the United States.
A Remote Healthcare Recruiting Assistant supports candidate screening, interview scheduling, ATS management, and recruiting coordination for healthcare organizations. Working within the recruiting team's scope, the Healthcare Recruiting Assistant is the organized, candidate-focused professional who screens resumes, schedules interviews, keeps candidates and recruiters coordinated, and maintains accurate ATS data so the recruiting team can move candidates quickly and the organization can hire the talent it needs.
No prior healthcare or recruiting experience is required. Paid training is provided. This role is well-suited to candidates who are organized, comfortable with ATS platforms and candidate communications, and take pride in candidate experience — including career changers, recent graduates, and first-time remote workers coming from recruiting, HR, administrative, or staffing roles.
The specific organization, recruiting focus, and scope of responsibilities will depend on the employer and assignment.
This opportunity may be suitable for professionals searching for healthcare recruiting assistant jobs, remote recruiting coordinator jobs, work-from-home recruiting assistant jobs, entry-level healthcare jobs no experience, remote healthcare recruiting assistant, or virtual recruiting assistant roles.
This is a true entry-level role. No prior healthcare or recruiting experience is required. Employers provide paid training on ATS platforms, candidate screening workflows, interview scheduling, recruiting coordination standards, and HIPAA compliance. If you are organized, comfortable with candidate communications and ATS platforms, and can learn new software, you're a great fit. Many of our Healthcare Recruiting Assistants come from recruiting, HR, administrative, and staffing roles.
Remote healthcare recruiting support runs on scheduled recruiting cycles, interview calendars, and candidate pipelines, giving your workday predictability and structure. Programs typically offer daytime weekday coverage, with some recruiting teams supporting early morning or evening coverage to accommodate candidate interview availability. Many assistants work flexible 8-hour days, and some work part-time schedules around school or family commitments. There are no clinical duties, minimal patient-facing work, and no in-person office requirements. We offer both full-time and part-time positions. Discuss your preferred schedule during your interview.
As a Remote Healthcare Recruiting Assistant, you may support recruiting across a range of recruiting tasks.
Remote healthcare recruiting support is a growing area — driven by increased demand for recruiting capacity, expanded remote recruiting workflows, and the recognition that dedicated recruiting assistants accelerate hiring, improve candidate experience, and reduce time-to-fill. Remote Healthcare Recruiting Assistants extend recruiting capacity, support healthcare organizations, and improve recruiting outcomes across organizations.
Depending on the program, healthcare recruiting support may focus on:
The Healthcare Recruiting Assistant's role is to provide recruiting support within the recruiting team's scope — including resume screening, candidate screening, interview scheduling, ATS management, candidate communications, and accurate documentation. Hiring decisions, offer decisions, and compensation decisions remain with recruiting leadership and hiring managers; the Healthcare Recruiting Assistant supports the recruiting process and coordinates with recruiters, hiring managers, and candidates.
This structure keeps the role focused on candidate screening, interview scheduling, ATS management, candidate communications, documentation, and recruiting coordination.
The Healthcare Recruiting Assistant handles the coordination work that keeps healthcare recruiting moving — candidates need to be screened, interviews need to be scheduled, and ATS data needs to be accurate. You'll screen resumes (against job requirements), screen candidates (initial phone screens and qualification), schedule interviews (coordinating candidates and hiring managers), manage ATS data (keeping records accurate), and coordinate candidate communications (confirmations, reminders, and follow-ups).
Depending on the recruiting focus, you may support recruiting by:
Organization, candidate empathy, and reliability are essential — Healthcare Recruiting Assistants help healthcare organizations hire the talent they need.
A Remote Healthcare Recruiting Assistant may follow a structured workflow across each recruiting cycle.
Depending on the employer's protocols, you may:
Healthcare recruiting work involves candidate personal information — including names, contact details, work history, and credentials — and may involve patient or clinical context when recruiting for clinical roles. All recruiting work must comply with HIPAA privacy rules, organizational privacy policy, candidate confidentiality standards, and recruiting documentation requirements. Recruiting concerns requiring supervisor input, hiring process questions, or situations affecting candidate experience must be escalated following the employer's escalation protocol. Healthcare Recruiting Assistants must maintain HIPAA compliance and protect candidate and patient data across all recruiting work.
Experience or background in any of the following may be beneficial — but none are required:
A typical day may begin by logging into the ATS — reviewing open reqs, checking the day's interview schedule, and identifying priority candidates from the previous day.
You'll review open reqs — scanning the recruiting pipeline for each open role and prioritizing candidates who need attention.
You'll screen candidates — reading resumes against job requirements and supporting initial phone screens with qualified candidates.
You'll schedule interviews — coordinating interview times between candidates and hiring managers, sending confirmations and calendar invites, and managing any rescheduling.
You'll coordinate communications — sending reminders, following up with candidates on next steps, and keeping candidates informed throughout the process.
You'll update ATS data — recording candidate status, interview notes, and next steps accurately in the ATS.
You'll report and track — updating the recruiting tracker, preparing status reports, and helping the recruiting team see pipeline health at a glance.
You'll support offer coordination, background checks, and pre-boarding tasks — helping move candidates smoothly from offer to start.
Between tasks, you'll coordinate with recruiters, hiring managers, and candidates, and support candidate sourcing and job postings as needed.
Throughout the day, you'll work across multiple ATS, calendar, and communication systems, document your recruiting activity accurately, support recruiting quality goals, and maintain HIPAA compliance across all recruiting work.
The role combines resume screening, candidate screening, interview scheduling, ATS management, candidate communications, recruiting coordination, documentation, and recruiting reporting.
