Dental Student/Graduate Coaching

Dental Student & Graduate Coaching

A career in Dentistry is challenging to say the least. Academic knowledge and achievements at university is only a small part of the big picture once you graduate and unfortunately little advice or guidance is offered in this aspect during the dental program. Having been a practice owner for over 10 years and have both employed and interviewed numerous dental students/new graduates, there is an obvious lack of knowledge and awareness of what a career in dentistry (outside of dental treatment) actually involves. We are here to help those who want to be better prepared and have realistic expectations of things to come post graduation. Some of the most common (although rarely discussed) topics of interest include:

– Jobs in dentistry – private, public, group, solo
– Types of employment – permanent, casual, “contractor”
– Salaries & pay structures
– Tax planning
– Job interviews – how to stand out from the crowd
– CPD courses – which to pick?
– Post-graduate studies
– Stress management
– Work-place relationships
