I was wondering if anyone could shed light on what the general job search process looks like for IR trainees as they near completion of their training. Are open jobs generally spread by word of mouth? Do fellows/residents contact groups on their own?
For reference, my dream job would be high end and clinically oriented IR at a private group in the southeastern US (GA, FL). Even if I would have to compromise a bit on the nature of the job, the location would be the most important factor for me due to family reasons. Based off what I've heard, trying to find a job in a region different from where you train seems to be something that will require a bit more work. Just wanted to know how early in training one needs to make inroads at groups in a different region to be able to ultimately get offered a job there
