    What do COTA jobs pay, and where are they?

    Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA) roles in the US are advertised at roughly $28/hr – $42/hr, with entry roles near $28/hr and senior or supervisory roles near $42/hr. Steady, with the sharpest need in skilled nursing and school contract work. COTA work is delivered in person, so location and drive time matter more than for most clinical roles.

    Start with your state page: it carries the licensure position, the local market read and every live role we hold there. If nothing is open, that is usually timing rather than absence — COTA searches move quickly and most never reach a board.

    COTA pay by state

    What a COTA offer is worth depends on licensure, setting mix and cost of living as much as the headline number.
