Match your resume to each orthotic specialty

Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists certified orthotic fitter openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Request referrals from your clinical rotation sites
Many certified orthotic fitter positions are filled through word-of-mouth within the orthotics and prosthetics community. Reach out to supervising practitioners from your training rotations when you're actively job searching, they often know about openings before they're posted.
Prepare to demonstrate fitting technique in interviews
Many practices include a practical skills assessment alongside the traditional interview. Expect to walk through your patient evaluation process, explain how you select a device for a specific diagnosis, and describe how you handle a poor fit at follow-up.
Negotiate your continuing education reimbursement
ABC and BOC certifications require ongoing continuing education units to maintain. When you receive an offer, ask specifically about CE reimbursement, annual allowances, and paid time off for professional development, these terms vary widely between employers.
