Hiring a New Hygienist? Try This...

If you do not have a profile, then STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND BUILD ONE NOW. A great resource for this is Craig Fisher, who is a renowned LinkedIn expert who speaks on using the platform for recruitment marketing. Here is a link to one of his presentations that provides a good starting point for building a good profile.
With that rant out of the way, let's get back to finding talent. There are many ways to find candidates on LinkedIn, but one really effective way is to source through the built-in education filters.
Let's say your hygienist just gave notice – go on to your LinkedIn home page and hover over the 'interests' drop-down. Then click on the 'education' drop-down.



Click on the 'more' link to see all of the filter options.


I would start these emails by introducing yourself, then include two to three lines about what you are looking for, three to four lines about why your practice is special and then end it asking them if they or anyone they know anyone who might be looking.
In later articles we will talk about what job boards to use and how write effective ads for the boards.
