pls help a new grad

[angelU]

i graduated last april but i prefer to start working at around novemeber, after i take the board exam.

question is... when do i start applying (pass my resume, schedule interviews, take tests etc.)? how long does the application process usually last anyway?

tama bang magpa-interview na agad ngayon? ayoko kasi ma-pressure na magsimula ng july or something...

The time for the application process depends on a lot of things such as company procedure, available positions, market demand and supply, and your own qualifications.

Personally, I suggest you start now -- just be sure to inform your prospective employers that you still have to take the Board Exam this coming november. :)

Good luck to you!

Agree with Chad. Start now.

Look at it this way. Some company could be out there which might want you badly enough to wait until you take your boards. If you don't start now, that same company could find someone else.

thanks :)

hi angelU,

pahabol lang...yes i agree with both of them that you should start looking already.

you can apply and you can tell your interviewer that you will be taking an the board exams first, it's actually a big plus for you, right?

usually, they ask you when you're available to start, so it won't be a big problem except of they are looking for immediate employees :)

goodluck with your board and your job hunting. :)
