A few pieces of advice, having just gone through the job search process myself.

1. 6 months isn't too early to be looking for job, but I wouldn't worry so much about current advertised positions. I'd focus on meeting people at companies you'd want to work for in the future and developing relationships with them.

2. Don't over-think the first job. You may not like it but the biggest danger is having too much time on your hands while you look for a job. It can get depressing.

Here's a blog post summarizing my experience job hunting and living in a new city without an apartment or job:
