Applied on Friday- received call on Monday from regional manager. Talked briefly before he asked me to come in for an interview that same day. I tried to schedule for the day after as to have ample time to prepare but was assured it would be a low pressure personable chat. I went in just a couple hours later- I met with the Regional Manager- the Office Manager- and the Part Owner(dentist) it was not organized and there was a lot of time waiting between meetings. (Which I did not necessarily mind at the time but in retrospect was a red flag in itself.) All meetings went well and I was told they would discuss salary and write up an offer letter. Days pass and I hear nothing- I follow up twice- once via email and once via voicemail. It’s a shame because I was very excited at the prospect of joining the team but am now glad I dodged that bullet- I found a very negative review written on indeed just days after my interview posted by the office manager who I had met with slamming the company after she had been fired.
Easy!! Not that hard, just basic interview questions. I did one over the phone interview and then one in person interview, that was more of a tour around the office and to meet the other staff.
So probably the most unprofessional and borderline discriminatory interview I have been in . I felt like I was in a free tooth clinic full of chaos with the rudest assistants and a dentist I am pretty sure graduated yesterday ! Gary Clark asked general questions strength , weakness, etc. When I did express one of my weaknesses was ADHD .. he said he hates people with ADHD. He went on to talk about his friends that had it and how he can’t stand being around them . He cursed several times during the interview and was even making fun of an older applicant that would not be working there !I was just trying to be transparent , letting him know I had my ADHD under control but it’s a weakness , but also a great attention as I multitask like crazy .Another question ?? What would I do if zombies were coming to eat our faces what would I do ? I said run .. he told me I was wrong. I can tell he was hired out of desperation , he is an HR nightmare .
I was excited for the opportunities and was excited to combine my love of dentistry and sales . This interview left a bad taste in my mouth and hope you catch this problem before you face a law suit . Professionals would never tolerate this !!
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Aspen Dental (Augusta, GA) in Mar 2019
Interview
Working interviews are suggested, not a lot of experience needed. Most questions are easy, really friendly staff. Easy going setting, very modern offices. Mostly fast pace, quick interviews. Would recommend if you’re straight out of school.
