    FAQ | PTMatch Job Board and Recruiting

    Welcome to the PTMatch Job Board and Recruiting FAQ. Below you'll find answers to the most common questions from both PT Clinic Employers and Job Seekers.

    For PT Clinic Employers

    What jobs can I list?

    Any jobs for your PT clinic. While our focus is on Physical Therapists and Physical Therapist Assistants, others visit our site looking for roles in the field of Physical Therapy, including Admin roles, Aides and Techs, and Directors and Managers. List any and all positions you want to promote.

    Why use PTMatch instead of Indeed or LinkedIn?

    General job boards like Indeed and LinkedIn are broad and unfocused. And many PTs are not on LinkedIn. PTMatch is specialized for physical therapy, meaning your listings reach a curated, motivated audience. Our verified clinics and niche targeting eliminate noise and improve match quality. And we generally charge a lot less.

    Why use PTMatch instead of the APTA or my State Chapter?

    Association job listings appeal to members of the associations, about 30% of PTs, and 10% of PTAs. And they tend to be quite expensive.

    Is there a fee to post a job?

    Yes. During our Founder period, a single job posting is $49/month, billed two months at a time. PTMatch operates on a paid job listing model. You pay to post and promote open roles at your clinic. This helps us ensure quality and visibility.

    Can I list multiple positions?

    Yes. You can post as many open positions as you'd like. We encourage clinics to list all available roles to maximize exposure and hiring efficiency.

    Are clinics verified?

    Yes. All employers are screened and verified to ensure they are licensed to provide physical therapy services in their state. We only allow real PT practices.

    Can I get help with recruiting?

    Yes. If you need more support, you can work with our full-service recruiting team. We'll help you source, screen, and place candidates beyond the job board listing. Visit our For Employers page for more information.

    How long will my job post stay live?

    Job listings stay live for 90 days unless renewed. You'll receive a reminder before expiration so you can repost or update.

    How are candidates notified of my job?

    We share listings directly with our database of PTs and PTAs, and via our channels (email, social, and partner networks). Listings are also visible on the job board homepage.

    What if I don't get any applicants?

    If your posting doesn't generate interest, we can help review your listing and provide suggestions. You can also upgrade to full-service recruiting.

    How do I edit or remove a job post?

    Email us at Kathy@PTMatch.io. You can edit or archive any job at any time. (3 edits per listing max.)

    For Job Seekers

    Do I have to pay to apply for jobs?

    No. It is completely free for job seekers to browse and apply for any job listings on the PTMatch site.

    What kinds of jobs are posted here?

    We post physical therapy-specific jobs including staff PT roles, clinic directors, PTAs, aides, rehab techs, admin roles, and more.

    Are these real clinics?

    Yes. Every employer on PTMatch is verified to be a licensed physical therapy provider in their state. We do not allow job listings from non-clinical or unverified sources.

    Can I upload my resume?

    Not on the job board itself. But if you'd like to be considered for the PTMatch starred roles or other roles beyond those posted, you can create a candidate profile with PTMatch and we'll work with you to find your ideal match.

    Can PTMatch help me find a job directly?

    Yes. If you create a candidate profile, we will meet with you, polish your profile, and introduce you to employers we already work with or help you get in front of new clinics.

    Will my information be shared?

    Not without your permission. We do not store public profiles or share your data unless you choose to engage directly with PTMatch recruiting.

    How do I apply for a job?

    Go to any job listing and click on the Apply Now button. Most listings will link directly to the employer's email contact. For PTMatch starred jobs you'll email Kathy and she'll be in touch.

    Can I filter by location or job type?

    Yes. Use the filters on the job board homepage to narrow listings by region, job type, specialty, and clinical role.

    What if I have questions about a job?

    Each job listing includes contact info for the clinic. If you still have questions, reach out to us at Kathy@PTMatch.io.
