Want to fill your shifts quickly and reliably? Here are the proven strategies practices use every day:
✅ Send ONE Request to 30+ Locums
The more locums see your request, the faster it fills. Practices who reach 30+ locums get a 91% success rate, often in under 15 minutes.
✅ Don’t Split Requests
Avoid sending multiple requests for the same shift. If two locums accept, you risk both arriving — leading to confusion.
✅ Stay in Control with Exclusions
Want to leave someone out? Use the green checkmark to deselect specific locums before sending. That way you maximise reach while staying in control.
✅ Use Filters Wisely
Filters like Price, Distance, or Skills help you target the right locums — without shrinking your request list too much.
✅ Trust the Rebooking System
If no one accepts right away, Airlocum automatically re-sends your request using your original criteria. You don’t need to do anything.
💡 Pro tip: Think of Airlocum like Uber — one request goes out, and the first professional to accept secures the job.
