Entry Level PT Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level pt job?
Entry level pt employers look for completed clinical rotations, a state license or eligibility to sit for the NPTE, and hands-on patient care experience from internships or volunteer work. A strong clinical reference from a supervisor carries significant weight at this stage. Tailoring your resume to highlight specific patient populations you worked with and the treatment settings you trained in gives you a clear edge over candidates with a generic application.
Which companies hire entry level pts?
Companies hiring entry level pts right now include HealthPRO Heritage, Allied Services, and Preferred Therapy Solutions, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Hiring at this level covers outpatient clinics, hospital systems, skilled nursing facilities, and school districts, all of which regularly bring on new graduates as they build their clinical teams.
Are there remote entry level pt jobs?
Yes, though most pt roles are hands-on and clinic-based. About 50% of entry level pt openings are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those positions typically involve telehealth evaluations, home health coordination, or administrative and case management duties rather than direct in-person treatment.
Are these new grad pt jobs?
Yes, the listings here include new grad, recent graduate, and junior pt roles. A posting is new grad friendly when it welcomes zero to two years of experience, counts clinical rotations or internships toward the requirement, or accepts a strong portfolio in place of full-time history. Look for language like "new graduates encouraged" or "license eligible" as clear signals the employer is open to candidates at the start of their career.
Which industries hire the most entry level pts?
Entry level pt roles concentrate in Healthcare & Medical Services, Education, and Science & Research, based on current listings on Migrate Ate as of August 2026. Those sectors drive the highest volume of new graduate hiring because they manage large patient populations with ongoing rehabilitation needs and rely on a steady pipeline of newly licensed clinicians to fill frontline treatment positions.
