Keep in otuch with an organisation where you wan to work,even if there's no vacancy at the time you're looking.

I would like to replace the underlined time adverb(ial) with other choices as below,

1) at the moment
2) at this point.

Do they make any difference? :?:

at the time refers to the time in the future when you're looking for a job, whereas at the moment and at this time , in that context, both refer to now.

All the best, :D
