1) How To Get Top Pay In The Dental Industry:

Before you go to an interview for your next job, you need to find out how much the job is worth in that area according to your skills and experience.

RESEARCH

Take time out to research salaries/ hourly rates in each area that you attend an interview prior to the interview. This helps you prepare to make your case and land that possible job offer.

RESEARCH EMPLOYERS

This is an important step because this tells you a lot about the employer such as:

* What their own patients think of them (Yelp, Facebook, and Google reviews)

* What type of insurances do they accept

- Believe it or not the insurances a dental practice excepts can play a huge role in what you will get paid.

LET THEM TALK MONEY FIRST

If they ask you what your salary/ hourly rate requirements are, just say "You are open for negotiation based upon the position expectations and company benefits/perks."

You can also tell the employer you would like to know more about the responsibilities and the challenges of the job prior to discussing hourly pay.

If the employer needs a number, give a range based on your research that you did prior.

DO NOT talk about your personal or financial needs at all. EVER.

RECEIVED A JOB OFFER?

Just because you received the job offer doesn't mean you have to accept or turn it down right away. Just say "I need a day to think it over." This can possibly increase the original job offer.

DON'T BE AFRAID TO SAY "NO"

You may need to say "NO". Don't just accept an offer because you need a job. Remember you will be working with these people day in and day out. Bad work environments can cause unnecessary stress and hardship.
