Finance career advice

I am a CFA Level I candidate in my final year of economics undergraduate studies, and I hold an FMVA certification. My skills include R, BI, and Tableau. I plan to take the CFA Level I exam in May, and my FMVA course provider offers placement support. Should I enter the job market now, or wait until I complete Level II also? What are reasonable salary expectations for entry-level roles such as Financial Analyst, Equity Research Analyst, and Junior Investment Banking Analyst? Which companies are likely to recruit fresh graduates?
