Network Recruiting Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Job Title: Recruiting Canvasser - Dental Talent Network (South Carolina)

Location: Based onsite at Palms Dentistry - Greenville, SC and Simpsonville, SC (with regular travel throughout the Upstate SC market)

Reports To: [Recruiting Manager / HR Director]

Status: Temporary/Seasonal, Part-Time (8-12 weeks) - 24 hours/week, flexible days

Job Summary:
Riccobene Associates Family Dentistry is seeking a Recruiting Canvasser for a temporary, part-time engagement to build our talent pipeline across South Carolina. This role will be based onsite at our Palms Dentistry locations in Greenville and Simpsonville, working alongside the existing team to understand the day-to-day culture and needs of the practice. Being embedded in the office allows this person to build genuine relationships with current staff, tap into their professional networks, and represent the practice authentically when out in the community. Outside of time in the office, this role is about being present - attending community events, building relationships with dental programs and local offices, and creating a steady flow of qualified Dental Hygienists, Dental Assistants, and Patient Coordinators who know our name before we ever have an opening. This is a great fit for someone who thrives on face-to-face connection and wants a flexible, short-term project with real impact.

Resume-Building Experience: Hands-on exposure to talent acquisition, community outreach, and relationship-based recruiting
