Working Interview 3

The working interview is not a monster to fear, but a golden ticket to opportunity. It’s a thrilling stage where you, the dental hygienist, can shine and strut your stuff. We’re sharing six reasons to embrace this phase of interviewing so you can knock it out of the park at any practice.

Here’s Why Working Interviews Can Be Your Best Friend

  1. The Ultimate Showdown: A working interview is the perfect arena for a two-way evaluation. It’s here where you can flaunt your skills, work ethic, and team synergy. Simultaneously, it allows the employer to witness your performance and fit within their practice first hand.
  2. Power-Packed Performance: Working interviews are your chance to demonstrate your clinical prowess and patient care finesse directly to the employer. It’s a hands-on experience holding more weight than any traditional interview or resume could, offering solid proof of your capabilities.
  3. A Sneak Peek Into The Practice Culture: Engage in a working interview and step into the heart of the practice culture. Observe team dynamics, patient treatment, and the alignment of the practice with your values and work preferences. This knowledge empowers you to make informed decisions about the practice’s suitability for you.
  4. Mutual Evaluation: The working interview isn’t a one-way street. As much as the employer is assessing you, you have the opportunity to evaluate the practice, ensuring it meets your needs and expectations. It’s a win-win for both parties, creating a comfortable environment for a potential employment arrangement.
  5. Clearing The Air: Working interviews are ideal platforms for addressing queries or concerns and clarifying expectations. This transparency helps prevent misunderstandings and ensures you and your potential employer are on the same wavelength about job responsibilities, working conditions, and other crucial aspects.
  6. Turbocharge Your Professional Growth: The outcome of the working interview is a win either way. You gain insights into your strengths and areas for improvement, and acquire valuable experience in different practice settings, fueling your professional growth.

So, dental hygienists, it’s time to embrace working interviews as powerful tools for mutual assessment, professional advancement, and discovering the perfect fit. Approach these opportunities with confidence and an open mind, navigate the hiring process with ease, and make informed decisions that will propel your career forward.
