Let’s talk about hiring—because if you’re preparing to open your own practice, this is one area that can make or break your future.
What would change if you knew—truly knew—that your next hire would be a perfect fit?
The right staff doesn’t just help your startup run more smoothly. They become the reason you love coming to work. The wrong ones? They’ll drain your energy, strain your systems, and quietly eat away at your profitability.
In this episode of the Ideal Practices Podcast, I sat down with Ginny Hegarty, a nationally recognized expert in dental team dynamics, to share a proven hiring process that helps startup dentists build teams they trust.
Most hiring mistakes happen before the interview ever starts.
Googling “best interview questions” or rushing through resume reviews won’t cut it. Great hiring requires intention—and a system.
Here’s what you’ll learn in this conversation with Ginny:
Why common interview tactics create “false positives”
5 key questions that help reveal a candidate’s true fit
The 25-point scoring system you can use in every interview
How long you legally need to keep resumes on file (it’s longer than you think)
The 10-hour shortcut to pre-screening without wasting your time
Hiring is too important to leave to chance. This episode walks you through a step-by-step approach that helps you attract and retain team members who actually make your life easier—and your startup stronger.
