For Employers

The NATA Career Center is a great resource for employers. With 32,000 NATA members worldwide, the Career Center links employers directly to the most targeted and qualified job pool of certified athletic trainers available.

To list a full-time position, the cost is $250.00. To list a part-time position, the cost is $50.00.

• Job Activation Credits - As an employer, you may purchase one or more "Job Activation Credits", which you can then use at any time to create job listings. When you click on Purchase Activations, you have a choice of using a credit card or requesting an invoice to facilitate your check request at your institution. Your job listing will be displayed on the Career Center when we receive your payment (either by check or by credit card). For employers who pay by check, purchasing Job Activation Credits in advance may be an attractive alternative. This allows a job listing to be posted right away when a position becomes vacant.
• Two month postings - Each job listing will run for 60 days. You have the option of canceling a listing at any time. You can re-activate a listing after it expires by using another Job Activation Credit.
• Employer Profile - Employers may create an Employer Profile that includes a brief description of the organization, address, and a link to the employer's web site.
• Profile Search - Employers may search the database for candidate profiles by various criteria including::
  • Job Setting
  • Geographic Location
  • How long resume has been in system
• Applications by job - Lists all applications submitted for current or archived jobs
• Applications by date - Lists all applications submitted over a date range for current or archived jobs
• Job Statistics - Shows number of applications, views, and "email-to-friend" clicks for active or current jobs.
