Market context
Occupational Therapist roles in Arizona are typically supported by steady demand across schools, outpatient settings, and healthcare facilities. Competition can be strong because employers often look for a master’s degree, an active Arizona license, and an IVP Fingerprint card; benefits such as health, dental, vision, PTO, and holiday pay can also make openings more selective.
