Our user asked: "Hello, I'm messaging you this because I'm having trouble with finding a job in my area. I am currently in school as a physical therapist aide and I want to go ahead and start working so that when I finish my program I can continuing work, but how am I suppose to do that when there are jobs that only hire physical therapist assistants. Should I wait till I have a degree in PTA or try and find a job that hires PT aides"

Ask a PT Response: "You will need an associates degree and to pass the boards in order to practice as a PTA. It might not be a bad idea to get a job as a PT Aide while going to PTA school as this would give you more experience. Best of luck to you."
