when is the best time to look for employment?

Anytime is the right time to be looking for employment. In today's job market, individuals should constantly be looking for the next opportunity and continuously looking for ways to make themselves more marketable.

The CompTIA suite of certification are excellent additions to strengthen your resume. The Department of Defense requires various CompTIA certifications for different positions. To make yourself even more marketable, taking the Cisco equivalent of Network+ (CCNA) will open up additional opportunities for you. Also, continuing on with the CompTIA and getting your Security+ can also be quite valuable.

In short, continue making yourself as attractive to employers and seek out the positions where you are very well qualified to be competitive when your skills are reviewed.

I don't think there is a particular time which is best to look for employment applicable to the entire IT/Networking industry. However, the start of the fiscal year at a particular company may coincide with higher job opportunities at that company. Considering you are a student at an IT school, it would be advisable to speak to any placement officer or career advisor at your school, as they may have some relations with IT firms, and may help out to directly connect you with recruiters.
