Competitive Compensation Packages in Veterinary Recruitment

When trying to recruit veterinarians, one important factor to keep in mind is the benefits that come along with employment. Compensation can come in a variety of forms, but it is necessary to outline these to entice potential new hires and maintain a competitive edge against other practices.

Let’s take a look at what veterinarians are looking for:

• A 2023 report by the American Veterinary Medical Association shows that the most commonly received benefits are licenses, continuing education expenses, discounted pet care and paid vacation leave.
• Many of the benefits featured in this report suggest that veterinarians place importance on benefits that provide wellbeing bonuses. Whether it is continuing education compensation or extra paid time off, compensation and bonuses are driving factors in the veterinarian’s job search.
