Medix Staffing Solutions Expands IT Division Into Additional Offices; Bolsters National Service to Customers Coast-to-Coast

Lombard, IL, July 31, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Medix Staffing Solutions, Inc., a national staffing organization specialized in recruiting skilled personnel for clients in the Professional Services, Life Sciences, Healthcare and Information Technology industries, has advanced the expansion of its Information Technology division into additional Medix offices in order to better service its customers and become a fully national player in the IT market.

Medix launched its IT division in March of 2009, piloting the division from the company’s headquarters in Lombard, Ill. Since the inception of the division, the company has tripled the number of internal IT recruiters and account managers and officially launched the division in additional Medix offices, with continued expansion into more markets planned for the future.

The initiation of Medix’s IT division came in response to needs from clients within the company’s other staffing verticals, according to Eric Born, Director of Medix IT. “With our healthcare customer focus, we experienced increased requests for HIT professionals with an understanding of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and Meaningful Use,” said Born. “We understood the market demands for these positions would dramatically increase as hospitals and physician practices planned their EMR implementations.”

What started out as a division focused largely on HIT, Medix has developed into a division equipped to handle all verticals of the IT industry and recruit in markets across the nation. Born has placed an emphasis on knowledge expansion and professional growth for his team, and he encourages all employees in his division to research and share information from IT thought leaders in order to become experts in all facets of the industry. “We originally formalized Medix IT to leverage our healthcare customer base and match it with our expertise in recruiting HIT professionals nationwide. Now we have the ability to assist our customers’ staffing and recruiting needs in Applications, Infrastructure and Communications positions in all vertical segments,” said Born.

David Ray, an IT account manager in Medix’s Scottsdale office, where the division launched in February of this year, is excited for the opportunities the new division will allot the company. “We’re very fortunate to have so many strong relationships in place with outstanding clients through our Professional Services and Life Science divisions, and we’ve been able to leverage a lot of that success to permeate the IT departments of those organizations and gain our footing in the industry,” said Ray. “Companies are increasingly interested in truly investing in IT processes in order to stay ahead in their markets, and it’s exciting for us to work as a partner with these clients to help them find the best resources to reach their business objectives.”
