Looking into it, I’ll try to get you a better answer soon. My current best guess is that you should apply 3 months from now. This runs an increased risk that we’ll have filled all our positions / closed our applications, but also improved chances of making it through because you’ll know more things and be better prepared for the interviews.
(Among other things I’m looking into: would it be reasonable to apply now and mention that you’d prefer to be interviewed in 3 months.)
Update: I think you should apply now and mention somewhere that you’d prefer to be interviewed in 3 months because in those 3 months you will be doing <whatever it is you’re planning to do> and it will help with interviewing.

Thanks Rohin. I also feel that interviewing after my 3 more months of independent work is probably the correct call.
