When should I start applying for jobs?

I will be graduating from college this summer. My last day of school is July 26. I won't be able to work full time until I'm finished with school. Is it too early to start applying for jobs?

When should I start applying for jobs?
Absolutely not, but you must make your availability known to any potential employer because some jobs may require that you start immediately. By being active now, even if you don't find a job right away, you will be familiar with the process and in better shape as you near graduation. Good luck!
Reply:At least three months in advance in my opinion.
Reply:fall is the best time because students go back to school and so employers need helps so they will hire during the fall through the holiday time
Reply:Start applying now.
Reply:you could start now, it cant be too early...





the worst could happen is you'd start working before school ends
Reply:Yesterday. Get the word out. Most employeers/recruiters know you won't be available till after graduation. Just explain it.
Reply:When you dont have enough money and when you are old enough
Reply:I was in your same situation when I graduated in May. Everyone that i talked to recommended that I start applying for job six months before I graduated. However when I interviewed with companies they wanted someone that could start within one month. I had an interview with Eli Lilly to be a pharmaceutical sales rep, about three months before i graduated. Their hiring policy states that you have to wait for 6 months before you have a second interview if the first is unsuccessful. Applying to early really screwed me out of a great opportunity.
