Closing the Care Gap: Streamline Home Care Hiring with the myCNAjobs Integration

A Partnership to Strengthen the Caregiver Workforce

At CareerPlug, we know that hiring caregivers has never been more challenging. With 5 million caregivers currently in the workforce and 4.6 million unfilled care jobs projected by 2032, the demand for qualified, dependable care professionals continues to grow faster than supply. Across the industry, providers are facing a 12% applicant-to-hire rate and 79% turnover in the first 90 days — a reality that makes workforce stability one of the biggest challenges in post-acute care.

That’s why we’re thrilled for our integration and deeper partnership with myCNAjobs, the nation’s largest caregiver recruitment network.

This partnership connects CareerPlug customers directly to myCNAjobs’ exclusive caregiver network, helping home care and senior care organizations fill critical roles faster — and with candidates more likely to stay.

  • Reach caregivers who aren’t on general job boards like Indeed.
  • Hire faster by automating the flow of applicants directly into CareerPlug.
  • Improve retention and consistency of care by hiring mission-driven caregivers.
  • Get more traffic through the integration through prioritization, workflows, and even instant candidate matching.

Complementary to Indeed — Not Competitive

We recognize that Indeed plays a critical role in the recruitment ecosystem — and this partnership is designed to work alongside it.

While Indeed excels at delivering broad reach and free traffic, especially in urban markets, myCNAjobs brings access to a distinct caregiver audience that focuses exclusively on care-related careers. The data shows that only 18% of caregiver applicants overlap between the two platforms, meaning myCNAjobs expands an employer’s reach into an entirely new segment of the caregiving workforce. For any agency that is turning away cases, has unfulfilled shifts, or is unsatisfied with your current retention rates, this new partnership offers you flexibility and turnkey access to come and go as needed to build a team that delivers quality care. 

In fact, caregivers hired through myCNAjobs are 24% more likely to stay beyond 90 days compared to hires from other sources. It’s not about replacing Indeed — it’s about maximizing your reach while improving quality and retention.


Reaching Candidates Other Platforms Miss

myCNAjobs delivers candidates in five times more areas nationwide, particularly in rural and suburban markets where free traffic tends to be lower. Caregivers visit myCNAjobs for a variety of career-related resources — from training and test prep to healthcare scholarships and caregiver-specific hiring events — making it a natural hub for professionals committed to growing in the field.

Together, CareerPlug and myCNAjobs give employers a competitive edge by connecting them with more of the right people in more of the right places.

  • Post caregiver jobs directly to myCNAjobs through their CareerPlug account.
