MedCAREERS GROUP to acquire StaffMD

MedCAREERS GROUP, Inc. (the "Company" and "MCGI") (OTC Bulletin Board: MCGI) today announced that it has signed a letter of intent to acquire StaffMD a leading online job posting website in the physician staffing industry.  StaffMD operates primarily under the name www.physicianwork.com, but it has other operating assets as well.  StaffMD was founded ten years ago by Jeffrey Sisk and he will remain with the Company after the closing of the pending acquisition.  StaffMD has most of the major physician staffing companies as clients who use www.physicianwork.com to advertise their job listings.  The transaction is subject to due diligence and execution of definitive documentation which the parties expect to be finalized within 60 days.  

Physicianwork.com was cited in a 2007 survey conducted by the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) as the second most popular online source for physicians looking for jobs.  (NEJM's website was the most popular.)  

Commenting on the proposed transaction Mr. Sisk noted:  "I am a big believer in the strategy of MCGI and I am looking forward to being a part of the Company.  I believe that there is a lot of opportunity to grow StaffMD and to implement and grow the other brands that MCGI is looking to acquire.  A substantial amount of my selling price is in MCGI stock so I will be vested in the future success of the Company and I will work hard to make sure StaffMD continues to prosper."

Commenting on the proposed transaction for MedCAREERS GROUP, CEO R. Bryan Crutchfield commented:  "StaffMD is a leading company in the job posting space that has been built over the last ten years.  Jeff Sisk has done a great job and to be able to attract someone of his pedigree along with the StaffMD business is a huge endorsement of our strategy.  Physicianwork.com is an extremely strong brand as evidenced by the 2007 New England Journal of Medicine survey results and should be a tremendous asset for MedCAREERS Group to control."
