eBook: The International Dental Hygiene Employment Guide: Switzerland

This International Dental Hygiene Employment Guide provides job-seeking etiquette when applying for work in Switzerland. It also gives you insight into the practice of dental hygiene in Switzerland in the 90s and early 2000s.

The international dental hygiene job scene has changed considerably since 2009, when this book was first published. The principles included are still valuable.

Among the many resources are guidance on how to write a cover letter and CV, suggestions about what things to expect on an interview, and what life was like in Switzerland for foreign dental hygienists.
