Hire DPTs through Employer Connect

Physical therapy clinics across the nation are on the hunt for excellent new hires—but the shrinking PT hiring pool is putting many clinics in a tough bind. That's where we come in! Rizing Tide has a pool of new grad DPTs who are ready to enter the workforce—and we want to help you connect.

What is Employer Connect?

Rizing Tide’s Employer Connect program is an ambitious initiative pairing employers of choice with high-quality job-seekers within the Rizing Tide community. It’s one part recruitment tool, one part employer evaluation tool.

Lighthouse Badge

We support healthy professional environments that uplift employees and encourage career development. Every employer participating in Employer Connect receives a Lighthouse Badge by committing to providing a fair, equitable, and welcoming environment for our community members.

 

The Rizing Tide Lighthouse Badge tells the world that you care about your employees and the environment you cultivate in the clinic.
