This is my first job as a physical therapist aide and dont know what they are looking for. I am pursuing a degree in kenesiology currently and hope this this job will give me a feel of what it will be like to be a physical therapist. Any advice for what I should say or do at this interview would be really helpfull. Thnx to whomever answers!

Best Answer:
They will probably want to know if: 1. You've ever had a job where you worked with people 2. Are you familiar with being around those with disabilities 3. What are your aspirations? 4. What do you know about PT? They are usually looking for people who are comfortable being around people, being in close contact, having good interpersonal skills such as answering phones, customer service, etc. You should also be familiar with the practice guidelines for techs in your state. (If such guidelines exist in your state) You can see the link on the APTA website at: http://www.apta.org/AM/Template.cfm?Section=Archives2&TEMPLATE=/CM/ContentDisplay.cfm&CONTENTID=42744 Good luck
I am a PT
