Entry Level Physical Therapist Assistant Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level physical therapist assistant job?
Complete an accredited PTA program and pass the NPTE licensing exam, since most entry level employers require licensure before your first day. Clinical rotations and fieldwork hours from your program carry real weight with hiring managers at this stage. Highlighting hands-on patient care experience, even from supervised internships or clinical placements, gives you a concrete edge over candidates who list only coursework.
Which companies hire entry level physical therapist assistants?
Companies hiring entry level physical therapist assistants right now include HealthPRO Heritage, PT Solutions Physical Therapy, and Optum, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Outpatient clinics, rehabilitation centers, skilled nursing facilities, and hospital systems are among the most active employers at this experience level.
Are there remote entry level physical therapist assistant jobs?
Yes, though remote options are limited because most PTA work requires direct patient contact. About 0% of entry level physical therapist assistant openings are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, and those roles typically involve telehealth support, documentation, or care coordination rather than hands-on therapy. On-site positions remain the clear majority at this level.
Are these new grad physical therapist assistant jobs?
Yes, these listings include new grad, recent graduate, and junior physical therapist assistant roles. A posting is new-grad friendly when it welcomes zero to two years of experience, accepts clinical internship hours or supervised fieldwork in place of paid work history, or explicitly invites new graduates to apply. Look for language like 'new grads welcome' or 'will train' as reliable signals.
Which industries hire the most entry level physical therapist assistants?
Entry Level physical therapist assistant roles concentrate in Healthcare & Medical Services, Insurance, and Education, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. These sectors drive hiring at this level because they maintain high patient volumes and often build structured onboarding programs designed to bring new graduates up to speed quickly.
