AMI Network

What AMI Network does

AMI Network is a healthcare-specialized talent acquisition firm founded in 2010 by Daniel Amitin and headquartered in Santa Monica, California, with a regional office in New York City. The company exclusively serves the healthcare vertical through four service lines: Direct Hire / Executive Search (contingent and retained permanent placement), Temporary Staffing (contract-based access to 100,000+ healthcare professionals), Recruitment Process Outsourcing across four sub-models (Full-Cycle, Partial-Cycle, Limited, and High-Volume RPO), and Consulting Services covering process optimization, internal recruiter coaching, and technology evaluation. The firm operates across 7 dedicated practice areas — Medical Centers and Specialty Hospitals, Health Sciences Higher Education, Community-Based Non-Profits, Managed Care and Health Plans, Long-Term Care, Behavioral Health, and General Healthcare — and has placed candidates across 20+ US states.

The underlying technology platform is built around a proprietary 4-step recruitment process (Evaluation, Sourcing, Recruitment, Closing) supported by a 15-point candidate avatar system, a dedicated 3-person engagement model (Sourcer, Recruiter, Project Manager), and a proprietary database of 250,000+ healthcare professionals of which 40,000+ have been recruited directly and 100,000+ are resume-level records. AMI has invested in 13+ third-party sourcing and engagement technologies and positions itself as offering AI-powered headhunting, with 64% of candidates sourced off-market through cold outreach or referrals rather than job boards. The firm has been recognized as a Top 10% Search Firm in the United States since 2016 and a Forbes top recruiting firm since 2018.

AMI's business model is a mix of transaction-based placement fees (contingent and retained search), professional services fees (temporary staffing and consulting), and managed services contracts (multi-year RPO engagements). Go-to-market is sales-led with dedicated Business Development Managers running field-based enterprise sales in California and an inside sales layer for prospecting, transitioning to account management post-close. The firm is privately held and founder-owned, with no disclosed outside funding, M&A activity, or institutional investors identified in the source data.
