[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it depends on what type of candidate you are looking for.  If you are looking for either a gap year candidate or someone who will have just graduated from university, it is not too early to start looking now for an August arrival (because if being an AP is their gap year plan, many candidates have already gone through the application process).  If you are looking for someone older with more work experience, more of those candidates will likely be added to the system in the coming months. [b]That being said, I still don't think it hurts to start looking now.  You can X out candidates you don't want to interview and "like" those that you do and choose to start making "connections" whenever you are ready to interview[/b].[/quote]

I don’t think this advice makes much sense. And something is telling me that the PP is not a HM, but rather an LCC, or someone else, who is affiliated with CCAP. OP, if you follow this advice, you are going to spend much time looking through profiles now to decide which ones you may want to interview in the future. However, most of the good ones will be gone by the time you are ready. So chances are, you will have to start all over again. I suggest you wait until you are ready to devote time and energy to the matching process. Given last year’s disastrous experience with CC, I would not wait until April. Maybe start looking in March. I hope that reducing the number of matches to six rather than ten will make the process easier, though I probably would have done five or less. Anyway, good luck, OP! [/quote]
