If you have done a master's in finance (MSF), at what point do you interview for jobs with that degree?

Often, finance companies interview quite early for positions, but with the MSF, you will only have any grades to show in the spring of that year and even that will only be one semester. Do interviews start in the fall semester, spring semester, or after the spring semester?

Recruting starts the summer before/early fall irrespective of the degree sought. The masters grades won’t be weighted as heavily if there is no sample size to go on. The undergrad grades would probably be weighted more heavily.
