How quickly can Pulivarthi Group fill a veterinary or mental health role?

Pulivarthi Group delivers a shortlist of qualified candidates within one business day for most veterinary and behavioral-health roles. Average time-to-fill is 21 days for critical veterinary positions — compared with 60–180 days through a general staffing agency — and 48 hours to a first candidate for many behavioral health openings, including BCBAs and psychiatric NPs.

What types of healthcare professionals does Pulivarthi Group place?

Pulivarthi Group places DVMs and board-certified veterinary specialists (ACVIM, ACVS, ACVO, ABVP) on the veterinary side, and BCBAs, psychiatric nurse practitioners, LCSWs, psychologists, and ABA therapists for behavioral health — alongside allied health professionals across hospitals, long-term care, dialysis centers, and home health services.

Is there a fee for healthcare professionals to use Pulivarthi Group?

No. There is zero cost to job seekers. Placement fees are paid entirely by the hiring employer.

What engagement models does Pulivarthi Group offer?

Permanent, contract, locum/relief, fractional, and per-diem staffing — all handled by the same specialist team with contingent fees, quoted up front, paid only when someone is placed, and no mandatory 12-month exclusive contracts.

How does Pulivarthi Group verify credentials and ensure compliance?

State veterinary board verification, DEA checks, and specialty-board confirmation for vet roles; multi-state license tracking, PSYPACT awareness, HIPAA review, and payer-panel credentialing for behavioral health.

Does Pulivarthi Group serve facilities outside the United States?

Yes — the U.S. and Canada, spanning 15+ states with a growing Canadian presence.

What is the difference between contingent and permanent staffing?

Permanent staffing places a candidate as a full-time employee with a one-time fee. Contingent staffing (temp, locum, contract, per-diem) places workers for defined periods with the agency handling payroll and compliance.

How does Pulivarthi Group support onboarding after placement?

Payer-panel enrollment for behavioral health, CE tracking for veterinary professionals, credentialing support, and retention check-ins through the first 12 months.

How do I get started with Pulivarthi Group as an employer?

What makes Pulivarthi Group different from general healthcare staffing agencies?

Pulivarthi Group is a niche specialist — focusing exclusively on veterinary medicine and behavioral health, not a broad healthcare generalist. Dedicated vertical teams, proprietary candidate networks of DVMs and BCBAs, and subspecialty knowledge mean faster fills, better candidate fit, and higher 12-month retention rates.

Facilities We Serve in Healthcare

Veterinary and behavioral-health staffing is our specialty. Adjacent healthcare placements — hospitals, long-term care, allied health, dental — are where we extend that same credentialing rigor when it adds value.

Built for vet and behavioral-health hiring

Generic healthcare staffing treats your specialty as a line item. We don’t. Here’s what specialty depth actually looks like.

Credentialing built for your specialty

Veterinary placements include state veterinary board verification, DEA controlled-substance background checks, and specialty board confirmation (ACVIM, ACVS, ACVO, ABVP) when relevant. Mental health placements include multi-state license tracking, NLC and PSYPACT awareness, and payer-panel credentialing support.

Specialist pool means faster shortlists

Because we specialise in placing vet and behavioral-health professionals, our talent pool is pre-screened and ready. Most roles get a tailored shortlist within one business day. Average time-to-fill is 21 days for critical roles — versus 60+ days for generic agencies on vet roles and 90-180 days on psychiatric NP openings.

Compliance for your model

Veterinary: state veterinary board licensing, OSHA, and DEA controls reviewed during screening. Behavioral health: HIPAA, multi-state telehealth licensing, and clinical credential verification (LCSW, LMSW, LCPC, BCBA) handled as part of standard process.

Roles we actually place

Veterinary: DVMs, vet techs (LVT/RVT/CVT), CSRs, practice managers, board-certified specialists across internal medicine, surgery, dermatology, oncology, ophthalmology — plus equine, food-animal, and exotics. Mental health: psychiatrists, psychiatric NPs, LCSWs, LMSWs, psychologists (PhD/PsyD), ABA therapists, behavioral health techs, mobile crisis clinicians, and addiction counselors.

Flexible engagement, transparent pricing

Permanent, contract, locum/relief, fractional, or per-diem placements — same specialist team handles every model. Contingent fees quoted up front. No 12-month exclusive contracts.

Beyond the placement

We continue credentialing and onboarding support past placement — including payer-panel enrollment for behavioral-health hires and continuing-education tracking for vet placements. Retention check-ins through the first year help spot fit issues early.
