Temporary Job Placements
Temporary staff provided to fill a short term or emergency vacancy will be billed as follows:
A flat fee is charged for each day or part thereof. The amount is $45.00 for a dental assistant or receptionist and $50.00 for a hygienist.
Placement fees for associate dentists and locums are available on request.
In addition to the placement fee, an hourly rate is also charged for every hour worked, subject to a minimum of 4.0 hours. Our temps are paid by us, and rates have been agreed individually with everyone on our roster. Currently, the hourly rate for our temp hygienists ranges from $35 to $42 and dental assistants are paid between $20 and $27. The hourly rate charged for an assignment will vary depending on who is available at the time of booking. Invoices comprising the daily placement fees are billed at the end of the assignment or once per week depending on which occurs first.

Permanent Job Placements
Full-Time and Part-Time, and Contract Positions
When a client/ employer requires a new staff member to fill a permanent or long term vacancy on their team, Dental Placement Services will first perform a search of our database of candidates currently looking for employment in that category, and who meet the criteria specified by the client/ employer. If no compatible matches are found, a comprehensive search will be undertaken using all appropriate means including advertising, social media, internet sites, networking, etc.
Interested job candidates will be asked to submit their resumes and qualifications for consideration and those who meet the criteria will be personally interviewed by our recruiters and a short list of qualified candidates compiled. These candidates will be proposed to the client/ employer and interviews arranged, if the client wishes.
Dental Placement Services will follow up with the client/ employer and the candidates and will continue to be available during the hiring process right up to the point that an offer of employment is made and accepted.
For this service, Dental Placement Services will charge the client/ employer as follows:
At our discretion, a deposit may be required to secure the order and to initiate a search. The client’s acceptance of resumes for potential job candidates constitutes responsibility to pay our placement fees if one of our candidates is hired for the position.
If a successful placement is achieved, a placement fee of $550.00 will be charged. Any deposit paid will be credited towards the placement fee.
