Expa surfaces licensed PTs and PTAs who haven’t applied but are open to the right opportunity — from new grads entering the field to experienced specialists considering a change.
Everyone’s chasing the same small pool of candidates, driving up offers — even as reimbursement rates continue to drop.
Your job offer isn't the first they've seen today. Most PTs and PTAs are flooded with emails and texts — often generic, often ignored. Cutting through the noise is harder than ever.
Clinicians are tired of cookie-cutter job listings. When every employer promises "competitive pay" and a "great culture," nothing stands out. Even strong roles get overlooked.
Blasting more messages won't fix it. Top candidates aren't unresponsive — they're overwhelmed and tuning out. What works now is timing, relevance, and intent.
Three strategies to surface PT/PTA talent
Connect with physical therapists who just received their licenses and are entering the job market for the first time.
Identify working physical therapists showing signs of job search activity or career transition interest.
Find PTs with work history, education, or family ties to your specific geographic area who might want to return.
Surface PTs with the right background and experience for your practice
Match candidates based on their goals, preferences, and life stage — not just job titles
Engage visitors on your career site with 24/7 AI chat that qualifies in real time
We stopped competing in salary wars and started attracting PTs who truly wanted to build their careers with us. Within two months, Expa surfaced three orthopedic specialists who weren’t even actively job hunting but were drawn to our patient population. We hired all three.
