When do you begin putting in job apps for May grads?

I am graduating this May and I know the job market is tougher and I would like to do what i can to ensure a job ready when I graduate. When do new grads typically begin the application process? I am looking at IHS, VA and various major chains for a community pharmacy job.

Thanks.

If this is something to do with residencies, then no. I am not in a position to do a residency, so have not read about the process.

WVUPharm, You have a great hospital job still right? Unless you're interested in working a chain or IHS community pharmacy work, I doubt when or where I place an app will be relevant to you.

P.S. This is my wife's account. I guess she was logged in on her computer, sorry for the confusion of names.

I looked up midyear. It would have been a great opportunity, but unfortunately I can't make it. I am not allowed to miss clinical days. Are there other opportunities like this for which I could try to plan?

Thanks.

Also, WVUPharm2007, I was just searching around and saw some posts of yours concerning the job hunt. It's unnerving that you are having a time of it out there. You seem on-the-ball and passionate about hospital pharmacy. I wish you the best.

Everyone vents, but this guy seemed to care about doing the job correctly and was knowledgeable and interested in learning more.
