DENTAL ASSISTANT INTERVIEW TIPS – HOW TO PASS A DENTAL ASSISTANT JOB INTERVIEW!
The 5 interview tips that follow have been designed to make you the stand-out candidate during your Dental Assistant job interview. Regardless of the dental practice you are applying to work at, read and absorb the tips that follow and utilize them during your interview preparation.
DENTAL ASISTANT INTERVIEW TIP #1
During your interview, make reference to dental hygiene, safety procedures, and the importance of sterilization. We also recommend you spend time thinking about the hygiene procedures you will follow when you start work at their dental practice. This is particularly important due to the Covid 19 pandemic, and the emphasis that patients will demand a safe environment when they visit the dental practice.
DENTAL ASISTANT INTERVIEW TIP #2
Before you attend your Dental Assistant interview, take the time to read the job description carefully and write down the strengths you have that are aligned to this important document. This will enable you to quickly and effectively answer the interview questions what are your strengths, and what skills can you bring to the role?
DENTAL ASISTANT INTERVIEW TIP #3
A great way to prepare for your Dental Assistant job interview is to practice and rehearse your answer to the first question, tell me about yourself. If you can give a positive and confident answer to this first interview question, it sets you up nicely for the rest of the interview.
DENTAL ASISTANT INTERVIEW TIP #4
Before you attend your interview, think carefully about your availability and the hours you can commit to in the role of a Dental Assistant. The more hours you can work, especially at weekends, the more chance you will have of getting hired at your chosen dental practice.
DENTAL ASISTANT INTERVIEW TIP #5
At the end of your Dental Assistant job interview you will have the opportunity to ask the Dental Practice Manager several questions of your own. Here are 3 great questions to consider asking:
Q. If I am successful, how could I help you within my role as a Dental Assistant to provide a better service to your patients?
Q. What are the major challenges you are currently facing within this Dental Practice?
Q. What are the next stages of the process and when could I contact you to follow up about the results of the interview?
