Apply part time or volunteer at hospitals/clinics/facilities you are interested in working in. That way you can network and already have your foot in the door when you graduate.

It also gives you an idea of the atmosphere and culture of that workplace.

Good luck!!

Start applying now. There are so many new grads, the market is extremely competitive. Get letters of recommendation now, too, so you can turn them in with your app. Start applying to places where you did clinicals.
