    Re: Who is going through NPTE credential evaluation in California (San Jose)?

    Just wanted to give u guys an update. I've passed NPTE and will write the jurisprudence exam shortly. I'll be starting to find PTLA jobs very soon. but anyone has any idea of how I could find any available positions? People suggested calling clinics in the area and asking if their place trains PTLAs. But is there a list of clinics that lists which clinics take PTLAs?

    Hello,

    I am in a similar boat.. Passed NPTE, waiting to take jurisprudence exam and also start with PTLA process.

    I have tried calling folks here in San Jose area.. and they wanted me to literally work for free.luckily I have also applied for Oregon, NY and NJ state licenses as a backup..to gain 6 months experience to bring it back to CA.

    Can you update me with the status of your position now please?

    Advertise your physiotherapy job on Physiobob's Job
    I actually just finished my 6 month paid supervision at a PT clinic. Submitted the papers and took them a month to process it. They asked for a $100 initial license fee just now and is estimated to take another 5 WEEKS to process. During this time, I still have to work under supervision as PTLA.

    To get a job, you have to make cold calls in your city and see which clinic takes in PTLAs. NEVER WORK FOR FREE!
