@txsportsdoc We greatly appreciate you sharing your feedback and perspective. Our Career Center team would love to discuss this further with you and will be reaching out via email. Thank you!

Private practice orthos face challenges recruiting. Smaller private practices are having to spend thousands and compete with large systems and PE groups for simply posting a job position which many of our colleagues may want to consider. This feels like another hit against us private practices. @AAOS1 has done a lot of good things recently to add value to being a member. AAOS is using MedGeo Ventures, LLC to post jobs on their platform. It’s expensive and favors large institutions and PE groups. If you have multiple locations, you are penalized for this. I’d like to see our academy own recruitment. Make it easy and affordable, for private practices to post jobs so our colleagues can connect. I think it should be free for members, or much more affordable to post. If systems want to post, then charge them a corporate rate. I hope my AAOS ambassadors will support this. @djschuett @jointdocShields @InvictaOrtho @Davembmd @That_AjKid @CenterRotation @AmitMomayaMD @SethLShermanMD
