No! We are not a temp agency. We are a marketplace platform for dental offices and dental professionals to contract directly with each other for the fulfillment of shifts. Since we have simplified the process and replaced the traditional agencies with algorithms, GoTu’s platform connects dental professionals with offices that want to put their valuable skills to work!
Hygienists – Yes, you must have an active license and be in good standing with no derogatory marks.
Assistants – Each state has its own requirements to practice as a dental assistant. You must possess your state’s required licensing/certification(s) and be in good standing with no derogatory marks.
Download GoTu from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and complete the sign-up process (joingotu.com/app). Once completed, your account will be verified within five days and you’ll be able to start applying to shifts.
If you accept a shift that turns out to be with an office that you would prefer not to work with, please cancel the shift immediately through the app. All professionals are afforded a 20 minute no questions asked grace period for this exact purpose. Any time you cancel a shift, we encourage you to reach out to GoTu Support at 786-460-2170 to discuss blocking the office and ensuring you maintain full platform access.
GoTu is committed to protecting the privacy of the digital community. Once the shift is confirmed, you will be able to access the dental office’s information.
GoTu offers dental professionals two payment options:
Example of Payout Schedule:
Day Worked | Pay Released | Estimated Arrival |
Monday | Tuesday | Thursday-Friday |
Tuesday | Wednesday | Friday-Saturday |
Wednesday | Thursday | Saturday-Monday |
Thursday | Friday | Monday-Tuesday |
Friday | Saturday | Tuesday-Wednesday |
Saturday | Monday | Wednesday-Thursday |
* Pay is released 24 hours after completing a shift. Adjustments must be requested within that time.
* Adjustments may delay payout by an additional 24 hours.
* This schedule may vary due to bank holidays.
No, as an independent contractor, taxes are not withheld from your pay. There are many misconceptions about independent contractors in dentistry. With GoTu, our professionals choose their own days, hours, offices, and rate which satisfies the IRS requirements for being an independent contractor.
Taxes will be paid when you submit your tax return information and will not conflict with any W2 earnings from an office you work with directly.
GoTu provides credential management services by verifying your license and identification as part of creating your account. This requires a driver’s license or other state-approved ID, including passports.
We do this to provide the highest level of safety, protection, and professionalism to the dental offices contracting with independent contractors on the platform. No one but our verification team sees your ID.
Photos are not required, but they do help dental offices prepare for your arrival and know who to expect. Your photo will not be shared with the dental office until after you have accepted the shift.
No, you are not required to enter payment/bank info to create your account. However, to collect your payment after a completed shift, you will need to enter your bank info as all payments through the GoTu platform are completed electronically.
Absolutely! If you choose to accept an employment offer, please let us know so we can update our records (call or text 786‐460‐2170). We also offer reverse recruiting services if you’re interested in part‐time or full‐time opportunities in your area!
Your home address is the location in which you work and live. If you’d like to search other locations without changing your home address, you can use the address bar at the top of the “offers” page.
If the rate posted by a dental office does not match your standard working rate, you are encouraged to counter the offer by selecting the orange counter button on the shift post and requesting your standard rate. The office can accept or reject your counter.
You can set a custom radius for how far you are willing to travel, up to 50 miles from your home address. If you would like to set a larger radius, you can reach out to GoTu support for assistance.
Dental offices have a 10-hour window for confirming shifts or responding to counter offers. If you no longer want to wait for confirmation or are unable to make it to the shift, you can withdraw without any account penalties at any time.
Any shift adjustments should be made in the app and within 24 hours of the shift ending. After your shift is completed, follow these steps:
This process will prompt us to reach out to the office to confirm the hours you’ve adjusted.
Note* If a dental professional voluntarily leaves a confirmed shift early, they will only be paid for the time spent at the dental office.
We take the safety of our professionals seriously, which is why we require all our users to maintain adequate insurance coverage during each shift they work through our app. GoTu offers Occupational Accident Insurance (OAI) coverage to ensure you are protected in the event of an injury sustained during your GoTu shifts. OAI differs from Worker’s Compensation in that Worker’s Compensation can only be attached to an employer, while OAI can be purchased by and attached to an independent contractor. At GoTu, we offer you the flexibility to either purchase OAI that meets the minimum requirements through our platform or provide proof of your own OAI that meets the minimum requirements. If you prefer to opt-out of purchasing OAI through GoTu, simply contact our team at [email protected] to show proof of your personal OAI. For more information on this please read our Terms of Service, in the section ‘OCCUPATIONAL ACCIDENT INSURANCE.’
To register as a dental professional on TempMee, you must be at least 18 years old.
During the registration process, we will request identification documents or other forms of age verification to ensure compliance with this requirement. This measure is in place to uphold the integrity and professionalism of our platform.
