PT Jobs in Mississippi: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a pt in Mississippi?

You become a licensed physical therapist in Mississippi by earning a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from a CAPTE-accredited program, passing the National Physical Therapy Examination administered by the Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy, and applying for licensure through the Mississippi State Board of Physical Therapy. The board issues your license after verifying your credentials and exam results, and licensure must be renewed on a biennial basis.

How much do PTs make in Mississippi?

PTs in Mississippi earn a median of about $27,370 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $23,450 for the lowest 10% to over $36,880 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire pts in Mississippi?

Companies currently hiring pts in Mississippi include Memorial Hospital at Gulfport, GNC, and Five Below, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Mississippi's largest health systems and regional rehabilitation networks tend to post the most consistent openings across both inpatient and outpatient settings.

Which Mississippi cities have the most pt jobs?

Gulfport, Biloxi, and Southaven have the most pt openings in Mississippi. Jackson leads because it is home to the University of Mississippi Medical Center and a concentration of specialty clinics, while Gulfport and Hattiesburg benefit from anchor health systems like Memorial Hospital and Forrest Health that drive hiring across both inpatient facilities and outpatient rehabilitation centers throughout their surrounding regions.

Are there remote pt jobs in Mississippi?

Yes, but they're rare. Physical therapy is a hands-on clinical profession, so the vast majority of roles require in-person patient care. About 0% of pt openings tied to Mississippi are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those positions typically involve telehealth consultations, care coordination, or clinical documentation roles rather than direct patient treatment.

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

The most realistic entry path is applying for new graduate positions at large Mississippi health systems such as University of Mississippi Medical Center or Forrest Health, both of which regularly onboard new DPT graduates into structured clinical environments. Completing a clinical rotation at a Mississippi facility often converts directly into a job offer. Candidates without post-graduation experience gain an edge by holding an active Mississippi state license before applying and highlighting any clinical hour specialties from their accredited program, particularly in orthopedics or neurological care where Mississippi employers report the most consistent need.

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

You can find and apply to pt jobs in Mississippi on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers hiring across the state. Search the listings for roles that match your specialty and experience level and apply directly to the ones that fit.
