Our Hiring Process

At Laing Family Dentistry, we believe in taking the time to find the right person — both for our team and for you. We are not in a rush to fill this role, and we expect the process to include multiple interviews with both Dr. Laing and our staff. We may not hire for months after this listing is posted. 

Please note that an interview is not guaranteed. Applications that best reflect relevant experience — or cover letters that truly stand out — will be given priority. If we do not move forward with you right away, it does not necessarily mean the door is closed. We often revisit strong applicants as the process continues.

Our goal is to ensure that the person we hire feels like this is the right long-term fit, just as much as we do.
