    ATLANTA, GA, February 18, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Karen Weinstock, Managing Attorney at Weinstock Immigration Lawyers will be making a presentation at the Southwest Physicians Recruiters Association (SWPRA) 5th Annual Educational Conference on March 4th at 3 PM entitled, 'A-Z of IMG Recruiting'. The SWPRA 5th Annual Conference is being held March 3-4, 2016 at the Scottsdale Plaza Resort at 7200 N Scottsdale Rd, Paradise Valley, AZ 85253. Weinstock's presentation is designed to inform and educate physician recruiters on intermediate through advanced strategies of recruiting international medical graduates and bringing them in to work at U.S. hospitals. One of the top professions in the United States in recruiting professional foreign workers work in the United States is the medical field, particularly physicians. Weinstock's presentation is designed to help recruiters understand the intricate process that is required to bring these skilled doctors into the United States.

"I am very pleased to be presenting at the SWPRA 5th Annual Educational Conference," said Karen Weinstock, Managing Attorney of Weinstock Immigration Lawyers. "Understanding the immigration process is critical to recruiters working in the health care profession because with the shortage in physicians in the United States it has become essential to recruit qualified international medical graduates. Yet one of the stumbling blocks in bringing these professionals into the United States is a lack of understanding of immigration law, timelines and what to look for. 'A-Z of IMG Recruiting' is designed to educate recruiters on how it can be done successfully."

Weinstock's 'A-Z of IMG Recruiting' instructs recruiters on the timeline process involved in bringing an international medical graduate into the United States along with the visa categories available for international medical graduates, visa options and retention strategies. One of the key aspects of the presentation is how health care organizations can successfully bring in international medical professionals and then retain them under existing United States immigration laws.
