Occupational Therapist Resume Template
For a occupational therapist resume, we recommend Clinical Clean: Calm teal accent, high legibility sans — built for nursing, allied health, and clinical roles where credentials need to stand out.
Why this template fits a occupational therapist resume
A occupational therapist resume needs to prove functional independence outcomes, not just session counts — Clinical Clean keeps the focus on that with a clean accent-bar section style that reads clearly to both a hiring manager and the ATS software screening for Patient assessment and Treatment plan development.
All 25 Rezumz templates are single-column and ATS-safe by default — this one is just the best starting point for this specific field. You can switch templates any time while editing.
What to put in the template
Order the sections as summary, work experience, skills, then education and certifications. Put your most recent and most relevant role first. Keep it to one page unless you have a long career.
Skills to fill into the skills section
Must-have: Patient assessment, Treatment plan development, Adaptive equipment training, Documentation, Interdisciplinary collaboration.
If you have them: OTR license, Pediatric/geriatric specialty, EMR systems.
Example bullet points to copy the shape of
- Developed and delivered individualized treatment plans for a caseload of 10-14 patients across acute rehab and outpatient settings
- Trained 30+ patients on adaptive equipment use, improving independent-living task completion rates by 25%
- Collaborated with a 6-person interdisciplinary care team to coordinate discharge planning for complex cases
Replace the figures with your own. The layout does the formatting, but the bullets do the convincing.
Does the template matter to an ATS?
Less than people think. Every Rezumz template is single-column with real text, so applicant tracking systems read it correctly. What matters more is that the keywords above appear in your skills and in your bullets.
