Scheduling

Hey guys. I was invited for interview in MedStar union. I am living in the West right now. I wanted to ask when should I schedule the interview so that I can wait until I get other interviews from that area, like Maryland and New York (if I get any) and not be too late for interview at that place? ( I'm no too good at scheduling and logistics so I need your help guys... :eek:)
