Hello!
I am a current DPT student and have a couple questions for after graduation. I am attending school in the Midwest, but I am planning on moving to California ASAP after graduation. I'd like to move within 6mos before student loan payments kick in. I'd like to graduate, take the boards, get hired onto a PT position in California, and then move out there to begin working. So...
How difficult would it be to get hired into a PT position from across the country without meeting in person first? I am assuming it is feasible considering my program has posted job announcements from Arizona, Texas, etc. (Maybe Skype/FaceTime interviews?)
Is it common for PT employers to offer sign-on bonuses or "relocation assistance?"
Should I even bother with getting licensed in the state I am attending school, or just go straight for licensure on the boards with California? Is this possible?
I am very much a newbie, so forgive me if this has already been covered. Any other general info would be much appreciated! Happy Holidays 🙂
