I've been wrking @ this dental office for about 3 months and everyone is realy nice & my dental is covered @ 100%. But monday i have an interview @ another dental office, i don't know how much they'll pay but i hope is more than what i'm making right now. What should i do? take this new job or leave it? also should i feel bad for going to this interview? Please Help. thanks

Answer 1

To be honest, I've been in that situation...What I did...I went to the interview and they gave me info on the benefits and salary...When, they would tell me the salary, if its not more than I was getting or less, ...I was in that position, as far as salary, if they didn't pay me more, I would stay where I'm at...most of the time...they paid me more to work for them...and let them no, that you are an excellent asset to their company.... also, do your homework on the company, before you leave... if you like the company, also tell them you would like to give a two week notice, to your employer...You never know, if you would have to go back and work for them...leave in good standards...Good Luck.....

Answer 2

Since you work in a dental office you know how expensive dental work can become. If the other job offers more money AND full dental benefits take it :) Your co-workers will understand. Oh, and remember just because you go to an interview that doesn't mean you HAVE to work for them. Good-luck!

Answer 3

You have to do what you have to do......I would check to see if the cover your dental 100% like the other place, but if not, then you need to weigh the pros & cons of the new position. If it pays more, but doesn't cover all of the dental, then is the extra money worth leaving the old job???

Good luck in whatever you decide!!!

Answer 4

You should always have a back up. There is nothing wrong with offering your services to other prospective employers. It is somewhat understood you'll expect more money from a new employer. You may also have some leverage with your current employer to press for an increase in salary.

You're an employee not a slave. You work for someone to make a living.

Answer 5

You should definitely find out how much they pay before making a decision because it might be more but it might also be less.

No need to feel bad at all. You're working toward a goal and if the other job helps you get closer to that goal then as long as you've done your best, you're fine.

Answer 6

Considering that you're applying for probably the same exact job, just a different location you should find out before your interview what they have to offer. You haven't been at your current job long enough to request time off, especially to go looking at another job.

Answer 7

There is nothing wrong with trying to make more money or having better benefits, DO NOT MENTION WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO DO TO ANYONE ON THE JOB YOU ARE @ NOW, IF YOU DO THEY MAY FIRE YOU. JUST GO ON THE INTERVIEW, ASK THE QUESTIONS YOU NEED/WANT TO KNOW AND IF THIS OTHER JOB IS BETTER THEN TAKE IT, IF NOT STAY WHERE YOU ARE, I WISH YOU THE BEST.

Answer 8

How hard can it be? Go for the interview (cause you'll never know unless you try) at which point, they will offer you the position and then you will know the salary. If you don't want it, you're not obligated to take it...Go for it!

Answer 9

Sometimes it takes losing what you have to see what you've lost. Do you know how difficult it is to have truly nice and genuine coworkers? Do pray that you make the right decision. Do it in Jesus's name for the best results!

Answer 10

Be honest and ask about how much is the pay.Tell them if they offer more than what you make,then you would have to give 2 weeks notice to present employer.
