PT Jobs in Georgia: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a pt in Georgia?

To become a licensed physical therapist in Georgia, you must earn a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from a CAPTE-accredited program, pass the National Physical Therapy Examination, and apply for licensure through the Georgia State Board of Physical Therapy. The Board reviews your transcripts, exam scores, and a background check before issuing your license. Georgia does not currently participate in the PT Licensure Compact, so out-of-state PTs must apply for a standard Georgia license.

How much do PTs make in Georgia?

PTs in Georgia earn a median of about $30,550 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $22,080 for the lowest 10% to over $38,680 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire pts in Georgia?

Employers hiring pts in Georgia right now include Food Lion, CHSGa, and Piedmont Healthcare, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Georgia's large integrated health systems, outpatient rehab chains, and school districts are among the most consistent sources of physical therapist openings across the state.

Which Georgia cities have the most pt jobs?

Atlanta, Augusta, and Albany have the most pt openings in Georgia. Atlanta's concentration of major hospital systems and outpatient rehab networks drives the bulk of statewide volume, while Savannah and Augusta generate strong demand through regional medical centers, military-affiliated facilities, and a growing outpatient clinic presence.

Are there remote pt jobs in Georgia?

Yes, but they're rare. Physical therapy is a hands-on clinical profession, so the vast majority of positions require in-person patient care. About 20% of pt openings tied to Georgia are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those roles are almost exclusively in telehealth consultation, care coordination, or clinical education rather than direct treatment.

How can I get hired as a pt in Georgia with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is a new graduate position at a large Georgia health system that runs structured residency programs, such as those offered through Emory Healthcare and Piedmont Healthcare for orthopedic or neurological PT. Applying to high-volume outpatient orthopedic clinics as a PT tech or physical therapy aide first is another concrete route that builds clinical exposure and leads to internal hiring priority once you are licensed.

Where can I find and apply to pt jobs in Georgia?

You can find and apply to pt jobs in Georgia on Migrate Mate, which lists current Georgia openings across health systems, outpatient clinics, skilled nursing facilities, and school districts. Find roles that fit your specialty and experience level and apply directly through the listings.
