iPhone app recruits 'new generation' of dentists

iPhone

Integrated Dental Holdings (IDH) has launched a smartphone app to help dental workers and clinicians find positions at the group more easily

The web-based app can be installed on smartphones and can be used to browse for positions by location, job role or area.

It can also be used to contact the IDH recruitment team directly.
 

Matt Reeves, head of resourcing at IDH, said: ‘Sixty four per cent of dentists access the internet for professional purposes, mainly between patient appointments, therefore it was vital we developed an app that dentists can access easily with the limited time they have available.
 


‘There are a wide range of opportunities available across our UK network, and with the new generation of dentists more likely to use an iPhone to access the internet than through any other device (45%), we are making it as easy as possible for people to find the right position for them.’
In the first three days of its launch, 204 people have used the app, it can be downloaded at: www.jobtrain.co.uk/idh/mobile/ <http://www.jobtrain.co.uk/idh/mobile/>

This is a great idea by IDH and I will be interested to hear the results. Here's an interesting fact: 20% of visitors to Dentistry.co.uk are browsing on a mobile device (e.g. iPhone iPad, Android, etc.). That's a massive increase on previous years and a big chunk of our total readership. With 50,000 visitors per month in total, that's 10,000 visitors per month on mobile devices and the reason why we've redeveloped the website to be optimised for reading on these devices. In fact, I'm posting this comment from my iPhone now!
