Quacareer Co., Ltd. provides recruitment support for the dental industry
(Headquarters: Toshima-ku, Tokyo) is holding a human resources management seminar for dental clinics, “* Hygienist school faculty talk about job hunting trends in 2024 – What workplaces are “chosen” by new graduate DHs?”*
” was held at a venue in Tokyo on September 15th.
Quo Career has been holding seminars in the same format for some time. This time, we had three faculty members from dental hygienist training schools take to the stage, and from the unique perspective of faculty members who are in close contact with students on a daily basis, they talked about the “* Employment/offer offer status at each school* ”, “* Characteristics of current students and employment guidance policies*”, and “* What students are concerned about when choosing a job*”.

In fact, one of the speakers said to students, “We advise students that it is better to start job hunting early so that you can decide on a job in September.”
On the other hand, the job offer rate as of September is not that high.
One aspect of speeding up and prolonging job hunting is to avoid overlapping the workload of final-year dental hygienist students with tasks other than job hunting, such as clinical training and national exams. This is said to have a lot to do with the personality traits of today’s dental hygienist students.
■Characteristics of Generation Z students and what new graduate dental hygienists look for in the workplace
Many of the current final year dental hygienist students were born in the 2000s and are digital natives.
Teachers who are also involved in job-hunting guidance in the field said that they felt that many students had problems with face-to-face communication and expressing their emotions.
In addition to “human relationships”, the things that these new graduates often consider important when choosing a job include “is the educational system in place (will they be taught well?)”.
On the other hand, even though we simply refer to them as “new graduates,” we also found that, as their lifestyles have become more diverse, their criteria for choosing a job and the job appeals that appeal to them are also different.
In addition, with regard to “new graduate students with working experience”, who are expected to increase in the future, it is necessary to appeal to them in a way that reflects their preferences. The discussion included a lot of meaningful content for building recruitment strategies for dental clinics.
■ Opportunity to build relationships between schools and dental clinics During this seminar, we also set aside time to answer questions regarding recruitment activities that participants had received in advance. After the seminar, as usual, there was a line to exchange business cards with faculty members from the participating schools, and it also served as a place for interaction between schools and dental clinics, which usually have few opportunities to meet face-to-face. Ta.
In addition, in the post-completion survey, the satisfaction level of the participants was 100% (100% answered “Good” or “Very
good”/excluding non-responses), and “*
I was able to better understand the way Generation Z students think* ” “* It was helpful to hear real stories from current teachers* ” “* I wanted to reconsider my hospital’s recruitment process in line with the characteristics of today’s students.*
We received many positive comments, such as, “I would like to utilize the contents of this seminar in my future recruitment activities.”
At Quo Career, we will continue to support dental clinics in solving their recruitment issues, taking into consideration the voices of the participants.
