What to Expect When You Apply for a Therapy Role at Encompass Health

Starting a new chapter in your career is exciting, and we want you to feel supported every step of the way. At Encompass Health, we’re proud to hire occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech-language pathologists, therapy techs, and more across 167+ locations nationwide. When you apply for a therapy role with us, you can count on a clear, supportive hiring process guided by our recruiters—your main point of contact throughout the journey.

Step 1: Initial Contact

After submitting your application, you’ll likely be contacted by one of our recruiters. This first conversation may be over the phone or via video, giving you the chance to discuss your background, skills, and interest in joining Encompass Health. It’s also an opportunity for you to ask questions about the role and learn about our culture. During this stage, you may be asked to prepare references for a formal reference check.

Step 2: In-Depth Interviews

If you move forward, you’ll meet with hiring managers and team members in additional interviews. These conversations help you get to know the people you’d be working with and give us a chance to see how you’d contribute to the team. We encourage you to research the role, explore our values, and use this time to learn more about life at Encompass Health.

Step 3: Job Offer and Pre-Employment Screening

Candidates who are selected will receive a formal job offer. From there, the pre-employment process begins, which includes background checks, reference checks, and verification of any required licenses or certifications. A drug screen and TB test are also part of this process to ensure a safe environment for both employees and patients.

Guided Every Step of the Way

What makes our hiring process stand out is the people guiding you through it. Our recruiters stay in close contact throughout, answering your questions and providing updates so you never feel alone in the process. Their role is to make your experience as seamless as possible while helping you see if Encompass Health is the right fit for your next career move.
