I am a US-IMG and currently a PGY-1 IM resident at a university affiliated community hospital on the east

coast.

I would like to know if it will be hard/impossible to find outpatient IM PCP job in SoCal upon graduating from

east coast residency program without connection?

If so, how do I increase my odd to find primary care job in SoCal ?

Would specializing help increase my odd to stay in SoCal? If so, what IM subspecialty will provide best

chance for me to work in SoCal to be with my family?

Thank you so much for any advice and insight !
 
Are you free from visa restrictions, are you willing to take a pay cut, and are you willing to live away from the cities and coast? If the answer to all of that is yes then you will have absolutely no problem.
