Favorite Healthcare Staffing has been named one of America’s Top Recruiting Firms 2026 by Business Insider, in collaboration with research and analytics firm Plant-A Insights Group. The recognition reflects our strong performance and trust across the healthcare industry.
This honor follows a survey of more than 22,000 professionals who evaluated over 4,000 recruiting agencies nationwide. Favorite earned a place among a select group of firms recommended by both clients and hiring managers, along with a five-star rating across key areas such as service quality and candidate placement.
A recognition rooted in consistency and impact
For Favorite, this recognition represents more than just a milestone. It reflects how we approach workforce solutions in a way that delivers real value.
“This award is a testament to our commitment to the healthcare organizations, our communities, and professionals we serve,” said Amanda Hoffman, CEO of Favorite. “We are relentless about delivering consistently, executing with excellence, and solving workforce challenges in ways that create lasting value.”
That focus on consistency and long-term impact has shaped Favorite’s strategy. Rather than simply filling roles, we focus on strong partnerships and solutions that help healthcare providers navigate workforce challenges.
Why this matters now
Healthcare organizations continue to face staffing shortages and changing workforce demands, making the role of a trusted recruiting partner more important than ever.
Business Insider reporter Andy Kiersz noted, “Finding the right talent for your business is one of the most important responsibilities of any founder, owner, or manager.” Favorite’s inclusion on this list highlights our ability to meet those expectations and support long-term success for our clients.
Building momentum for the future
With more than 40 years of experience, Favorite continues to evolve alongside the healthcare industry. We provide a range of workforce solutions, including travel nursing, per diem staffing, workforce management services, and more.
Operating nationwide, Favorite supports healthcare organizations across a variety of settings, from hospitals to government agencies. Looking ahead, we remain focused on advancing our capabilities and continuing to raise the standard for healthcare workforce solutions.
As Amanda noted, “Awards like this validate our direction, but more importantly, they reinforce our responsibility to keep raising the standard.”
