When should I apply?

I am going to be relocating and applying for the second nursing job of my career. Just looking for some advice on how soon I should apply if we are planning to move in February 2016. Not sure how long the application and hiring process takes for someone that has 1 year of experience, since I have only applied as a new grad. Any advice is welcome, thank you!

    Where are you moving to? Are you moving to a big city area or somewhere in the suburbs? If you're moving to a big city area that has several hospital options, I would suggest waiting to see exactly where you are living first before applying for a job so that you can avoid a long commute.

    If you already know, I would still wait since February 2016 is still 5 months away. You can start looking and get an idea on the hospitals in the area and where you would like to work.

    I am going to be moving to Columbus, OH so there are a lot of different options of places to work. I really want to work at Riverside though, we have already looked at places to live around there and love the area! I am just nervous because I was a December grad and started applying in October, got a job in November and couldn't start working till February when I took my boards. I don't want to have the positions filled by new grads before I even apply, but I wasn't sure if October is too soon for someone that is already licensed and they would just have to hold the position for me until we moved. Thank you for responding and hope to hear from you again :)
