If your response to "Where are you looking" is "I'm open to anywhere," take some time to really consider the cities and regions that would best match your lifestyle and/or make you happiest long-term.

Paper CVs can be easily misplaced as hundreds of candidates pass through an exhibitor's booth. How can you make sure yours is remembered? Consider having a copy of your CV saved via Dropbox on your smartphone. After you engage with a recruiter or potential employer, obtain their email address and let them know you'll be sending it as an attachment by email shortly. This acts as an instant follow-up to your conversation and ensures that the recruitment process won't be delayed once you step away from the booth. 3. **Set up interviews for during ACEP before you arrive.** There's really no other way to ensure you're spending your time at ACEP in the most effective way. Our [network of independent, physician-owned emergency medicine groups](https://www.emrecruits.com/our-clients) will have physician leadership in attendance at ACEP and ready to speak with you.
