When to apply for a job....?

[PICUFL]

Hello! I am sure this topic has been covered on here but I was wondering how soon should I start applying for jobs. I am going into my last semester in August and will graduate in December. Is it ok to apply for a job while still in school?

Thanks

I applied in January, was hired in Feb and just graduated this week. We were encouraged to apply well before graduation. In our class of 60 almost 3/4 already had jobs before pinning.

Yeah you can and probably should start applying before grad! I started applying in Feb...got a job in April...graduated last weekend! Good Luck with your last semester!!
