I know parts of this have been previously addressed, but I recently came across a new twist that I'd appreciate some advice with. When is the earliest we as residents should start contacting potential jobs? I just started a three-year EM residency, and I know exactly the state I would like to move to after residency, and I won't change my mind about this. One of the other residents in my program contacted his preferred future hospital before he even started his residency, and they signed him and are giving him a monthly stipend throughout residency. I believe that his area is not very desirable (not underserved, however), and the area I'd like to move to is also not the most desirable. I've seen postings for jobs that I would love to apply for if it weren't too early. Would it make sense for me to contact some of these hospitals? Thanks for your help!
