Starting a run
Every field on the Start a run panel, what it does, and what happens the moment you click Start sourcing.
A run is one ask sourced on every channel at once. Start one from the AI sourcing page; the panel there has three parts, and Runs beside it lists every run on the account.
The role
A run is for one of your roles: what you are hiring for, and where.
- Role (required). Choose one from the list. If it is not there yet, Add a role writes one without leaving the run. Tenure's database reaches only people whose profession and specialty on record are the role's. The role's profession also decides how the message greets people: physicians are addressed as "Dr. {LASTNAME}", everyone else by first name.
- Location. Starts as the role's own location. Change it for this run if you like: start typing a city or a ZIP code and pick it from the list, as in Near on the Sourcing page. Leave it empty for anywhere. If Tenure cannot find a location you typed without picking, it says so and nothing starts.
- Distance. Within 5, 10, 25, 50 or 100 miles, 50 to begin with. The run reaches people who live within that distance of the location, even across a state line, and those nearer rank higher. The run page shows it, as in "Within 50 miles of Abilene, TX".
- Details about the ideal candidate (optional). Anything for this run alone, such as a credential or experience to look for. The role's pay, schedule and description go with the run on their own.
Remote and hybrid roles
A remote role has no location or distance. Its run looks for clinicians by the states they are licensed in, wherever they live: a physician in Ohio with a Florida licence is found by a remote run for Florida, and would not be by an on-site run in Tampa.
The licences a run matches on are the ones a clinician's CV lists. Tenure has not checked them with a state board, so confirm a licence when someone replies.
For a hybrid role, the location is the site they come in to.
Where
Tenure's database is always on. Each connected job board is on by default, with a field for the most people to contact on that board this run. See Channels and limits.
The message
The subject line and message each person receives. Both start filled in from the role ("Hiring Urgent Care Physician - Abilene, TX"), and you can edit them, ask Tenure for a draft, and preview them per channel. See Writing the message.
What happens when you start
- Tenure's database is searched for people who fit: the role's profession and specialty, within the distance of the location. It leaves out anyone on your do-not-contact list, anyone already in your contact pool, and anyone messaged in the last 7 days.
- Messages begin going out from the database at Tenure's daily pace.
- Each job board pass is queued. Tenure's AI-powered sourcing technology starts it and works it at the pace that board allows.
- The run page opens, with a card per channel. Every reply lands there and in your contacts.
If something is missing when you click Start, a message tells you what and moves you to that field.
