I’m going to graduate with a BS in Mechanical Engineering in the spring. The current company I work for has no future for me unfortunately so I would love to start applying for engineer positions elsewhere as soon as possible. When should a new grad start job hunting? Tips to get a position before graduating?

Whenever there is a job rec for new college grad that interests you apply for it. I'd spend your entire spring semester applying and part of your fall. Just ensure it's obvious on your Resume that you don't graduate until spring 2023
