When should I apply? When I have a job interview or when I start applying for jobs? When should I apply? When I have a job interview or when I start applying for jobs? You can apply at anytime. You are welcome to apply when you are applying for jobs, that way we can ‘pre-approve’ you for when you do have an interview and know what costs you will incur, which means we can act quickly. But if you don’t apply till you know you have an interview or internship that’s fine as long as we have enough time (ie at least a few working days) to process your application.
