How the numbers work.
-
Pick the boards that carry the specialty
Every board in the directory that is open to all specialties, plus the society boards for the one you choose.
-
Cover the days with the board’s own posting lengths
For a board that sells 30, 60 and 90-day postings, the cheapest mix that covers your days; for one that sells a single length, enough postings to cover them, rounded up. Nothing is prorated.
-
Monthly boards bill by the month
A board that bills a posting monthly is priced at one month for each 30 days, rounded up.
-
Multiply by the openings
One posting per opening. Packs, member rates and volume discounts are shown in the notes but not applied, because they depend on terms a board sets for each buyer.
-
CV access, if you need it
Where CV search comes with a posting, nothing changes. Where it comes in a dearer package with a published price, that package is priced instead. Where it is sold separately or only with a subscription, the CV part says ask.
Data and assumptions
Every price in the table is a leaf of the job board directory, read on the board’s own pricing or posting page on the day shown. A board with no published price is marked, never counted as free. Nothing here is an estimate: totals are arithmetic on these prices.

Assumptions
- One posting per opening, at the board’s single-posting price; packs, member rates and volume discounts are in the notes, not in the totals.
- Days are covered with the cheapest mix of the board’s own posting lengths; nothing is prorated.
- A posting billed by the month counts one month for each 30 days, rounded up.
- A board limited to one specialty appears only when that specialty, or any specialty, is chosen.
Questions about this calculator.
How much does it cost to post a physician job?
On the boards that publish a price, one posting runs from $150 for 90 days at HospitalRecruiting to $2,400 for 30 days at ASCO Career Center. CareerMD, GasWork, Indeed have a free option.
For the worked example above, 2 cardiology openings for 60 days, 8 boards publish a total and 6 sell only by quote.
Why do some boards say ask for a quote?
DocCafe, Doximity Talent Finder, Health eCareers, LinkedIn Jobs, PracticeLink, ZipRecruiter publish no price for a posting. Most sell an annual subscription or a package set after a sales call. The comparison never counts them as free: ask each for the price of the order you entered, the contract term and what CV search adds, and set the quote against the published totals.
Is a longer posting cheaper?
Per day, usually. APA JobCentral, for example, charges $449 for 30 days, $799 for 60 days, $1,199 for 90 days. The comparison picks the cheapest mix of a board’s own posting lengths for your days, so a 75-day run on a board that sells 90-day postings is priced as one 90-day posting.
How current are these prices?
Each price was read on the board’s own pricing or posting page, between October 25, 2026 and October 25, 2026; the date for each board is in the table. The directory is checked every quarter and a price that changed is replaced, never kept beside the old one. The job board directory has every board’s full terms.
