About us
This is a vibrant, well-resourced special education preschool serving children ages three through five with developmental delays and complex support needs. The school is part of a major nonprofit organization operating more than 70 programs and serving over 35,000 adults and children throughout New York City, Northern New Jersey, and Westchester. The therapy department was built to let clinicians actually practice therapy—not spend the day negotiating for treatment space, equipment, or permission to try something new. You will have your own desk, access to a large state-of-the-art therapy gym, dedicated treatment rooms, and supplies that go well beyond what most school-based clinicians are accustomed to having. Have an idea for a new treatment approach, piece of technology, training, or in-service? Leadership is willing to listen and move. You should not need three meetings, four approvals, and a carrier pigeon to obtain equipment that could help a child. This is meaningful work with children and families who may be navigating significant challenges. The right Physical Therapist will be resilient, creative, collaborative, and firmly committed to advocating for the children—even when progress requires patience.
WHY JOIN US?
- $86,480 annual salary for the full-time, 10-month Physical Therapist position
- 10-month school-year schedule that provides considerably more built-in time off than a traditional 12-month clinical role
- Consistent 8:00 AM–3:30 PM hours that give you your evenings back
- No more than nine treatment sessions per day—and leadership does not keep increasing the number once you arrive
- At least two hours of dedicated documentation time each day, so paperwork does not automatically become homework
- Additional blocks of documentation time are provided each month
- Access to a large, state-of-the-art therapy gym, dedicated treatment rooms, modern technology, and extensive clinical supplies
- Your own desk and designated workspace rather than completing notes wherever you can find an open chair
- Flexibility to adjust your schedule when legitimate needs arise
- Full-time opportunities with potential consideration for part-time scheduling
- Clinical autonomy to introduce treatment ideas, recommend equipment, and develop creative programming without excessive public-school red tape
- Opportunities to lead trainings, in-services, and professional development initiatives
- A collegial therapy department where Physical, Occupational, and Speech Therapists work together
- Medical, dental, vision, prescription, life insurance, retirement, tuition reimbursement, and paid time off
- A paid birthday holiday, plus three conference days after successfully completing probation
Many school-based clinicians accept overloaded schedules and unfinished documentation as part of the profession. It does not have to be. Here, treatment volume is controlled, paperwork time is built into the workday, and therapists are given the space, equipment, and freedom to do the job they were trained to do.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Physical Therapist Jobs at Jobot
Get your credentials verified before applying
Physical Therapist roles require state licensure, and many states won't process your application without a foreign credential evaluation. Complete your FCCPT or CGFNS evaluation early so Jobot's recruiters can confirm your eligibility before initiating any sponsorship conversation.
Ask recruiters which placement type applies
Jobot operates as a staffing agency, so some placements are contract roles while others are direct hire. Sponsorship structures differ between the two. Clarify upfront whether the position allows H-1B transfer or requires a new cap-subject filing.
Flag your visa type in your initial outreach
Jobot recruits for Physical Therapists across multiple visa categories including H-1B, F-1 OPT, and TN. Specifying your current status in your first message to a recruiter helps them route you to placements the end client has pre-approved for sponsorship.
Understand TN eligibility if you hold Canadian or Mexican citizenship
Physical Therapy qualifies as a TN profession under the USMCA, making it a faster alternative to H-1B for eligible candidates. Confirm with DOL guidelines that your degree and licensure align with TN requirements before requesting this pathway from Jobot.
Track OPT expiration against Jobot's placement timelines
Staffing placements can take weeks to move from offer to start date. If you're on F-1 OPT, map your authorization end date against the 60-day grace period so you and Jobot's team can time the H-1B petition filing without a gap in work authorization.
Use Migrate Mate to filter Physical Therapist roles by sponsorship type
Not every Jobot listing specifies which visa categories the end client accepts. Use Migrate Mate to surface Physical Therapist openings at Jobot filtered by the sponsorship type you need, so you're only applying to roles where the pathway already exists.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Jobot sponsor H-1B visas for Physical Therapists?
Yes, Jobot has sponsored H-1B visas for Physical Therapist roles. Because Jobot operates as a staffing and recruiting firm, sponsorship eligibility often depends on the end client rather than Jobot alone. When applying, confirm with the recruiter whether the specific placement is approved for H-1B sponsorship, and ask whether a cap-exempt or cap-subject filing applies to your situation.
How do I apply for Physical Therapist jobs at Jobot?
You can apply directly through Jobot's website or find their Physical Therapist listings filtered by visa sponsorship type on Migrate Mate. When reaching out to a Jobot recruiter, lead with your current visa status and licensure details. Jobot's model is relationship-driven, so a direct message to a recruiter often moves faster than a cold application through a job board.
Which visa types does Jobot commonly use for Physical Therapist roles?
Jobot has placed Physical Therapists using H-1B, F-1 OPT, and TN visas. TN is available to Canadian and Mexican citizens and is particularly practical for Physical Therapists since the occupation is explicitly listed under USMCA. F-1 OPT candidates can start work immediately if authorization is in place, while H-1B sponsorship typically involves a longer filing and processing timeline.
What qualifications does Jobot expect for Physical Therapist candidates seeking sponsorship?
Jobot's Physical Therapist placements generally require a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree, active state licensure in the state where the role is located, and clinical experience in the relevant setting. For sponsored roles, you'll also need a foreign credential evaluation if your degree was earned outside the United States. Some end clients require specialty certifications such as OCS or SCS depending on the practice area.
How long does the sponsorship process take for Physical Therapist roles at Jobot?
Timeline depends heavily on visa type. TN sponsorship can be processed within days for eligible candidates. F-1 OPT authorization should already be in place before you accept an offer. H-1B sponsorship, if it requires a new cap-subject filing, follows USCIS's annual lottery cycle in April, with employment typically starting October 1. Premium processing through USCIS is available and reduces adjudication time to 15 business days once filed.
