Everything you need to know about healthcare & veterinary staffing with Pulivarthi Group.
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.
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.
No. There is zero cost to job seekers. Placement fees are paid entirely by the hiring employer.
Permanent, contract, locum/relief, fractional, and per-diem staffing — all handled by the same specialist team with upfront contingent fees and no mandatory 12-month exclusive contracts.
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.
Yes — the U.S. and Canada, spanning 15+ states with a growing Canadian presence.
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.
Payer-panel enrollment for behavioral health, CE tracking for veterinary professionals, credentialing support, and retention check-ins through the first 12 months.

Pulivarthi Group is a niche specialist — focusing exclusively on veterinary medicine and behavioral health, not a broad healthcare generalist.
