The Heartland Dental Difference
Heartland Dental strives to find doctors their perfect fit to maximize their career, personal life and patient care delivery.
We stand apart and succeed because our supported doctors are the leaders of their practice.
Supported doctors have autonomy in all areas including their patients, their team and their office. In order to help them become strong leaders, they're offered world-class support and advancement strategies.
Based on their individual goals, supported doctors are offered the chance to grow with their offices and build rewarding careers. They're welcomed into a supportive, close-knit atmosphere built on leadership and team work.
Be a dentist again. Not an accountant, marketing guru or HR manager.
A dentist focused strictly on your most important task - patient care. A dentist who has the personal and professional flexibility you’ve always imagined.

Pros
Great pay, encourages education and administers most of it. This was my first job out of hygiene school and I'm am so grateful. I learned about the business of dentistry and the psychology of patient care.
Cons
Poor work/life balance in the north east region. I was working 2-3 12 hour shifts and 615 am to 8 in between with two days off. I also worked every other Saturday 8-4. Southern region isn't as bad.
Advice to Management
Continue to invest in your employees. It pays off

I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Heartland Dental (McKinney, TX).
Interview
Submitted application; a few days later received a rejection email. Two days after that, I got a call from the recruiter. We had a great chat and she set me up with an in-person interview. Went to interview, arrived on time. The manager was 15 min late and insisted I must have misread the appointment time (I double checked and I did not.) None the less, she and I had a great conversation as well. She told me quite a bit about the company and next steps. She told me to come back the following week on Tuesday, to shadow someone currently in the role. A few days after that, I get a rejection email. I call the recruiter to clarify: am I rejected or should I go to job preview on Tuesday? The recruiter apologizes and said she sent the email to the wrong person and that I should go Tuesday. So I went. They had no idea I was coming. They called the manager I met with and she said the recruiter was supposed to get in touch with me. I told her that I did speak with her, and she told me to come. So then she apologies for the confusion, tells me to leave and that she will call me. Guess who never called? It really is completely OK if I am not a good fit, but they were obviously not on the same page and wasted my time. I am grateful that I dodged this bullet! I highly recommend staying away from this place!
