Tips to Successfully Request Temps

At Direct Dental Staffing we are always striving to provide the best service!

To continue to improve our services here are some tips to help you get the most out of requesting a temp.

Tip #1

For best results, please submit your temp request with as much notice as possible! This gives us a higher probability of successfully filling your job with a temp that matches your request!

Tip #2

Please be prepared to provide us the key details of what you need. The dates and start/end time you need temp coverage as well as the position type(s) and experience level you need.

Tip #3

Let us know which temps you like working with! We will notate your account and do our best to schedule the same temps! You can also let us know who wasn’t the right fit for your office as well and adjust accordingly. 

Tip #4

For emergency and after hour requests please text our temp line (619) 453-2103 for the fastest response. Please include the name of your practice, date, start/end time, and position you need. You can always call us or submit an online temp request form as alternatives.

Emergency & After Hours Support

We are pleased to provide emergency and after hours service to our clients in need of temp staff! This applies to urgent requests with less than 24 hours notice. Often these are same day or next day requests for temps.  The charge for this level of service is 1.5x the normal referral fee. So for a very nominal cost difference of a few extra dollars we can provide urgent temp request services. As always, if we are unable to fill your temp request then there is absolutely no fee! So please contact us and we look forward to serving your urgent temp staff needs!

 

Cancellations

There are no cancellation fees if you cancel your temp request before we get it filled and send you the confirmation! We only charge a cancellation fee for temp requests that we have successfully filled for your office and that are cancelled within 72 hours of the job. We don’t like charging for cancellations, but we also must help protect our temps from being left without a job for the day due to a late cancellation. If you need to cancel your temp request, please contact us as soon as possible to avoid any fees.  

We love our Clients!

We really love what we do and our mission statement is to “Help Those Who Care For Others” meaning our responsibility is to source quality temp staff that can help you provide the best dental care to your patients! Our policies enable us to continue to support your offices to the best of our ability. If you have any questions or concerns please give us a call @ (619) 295-1002!
