Applying for jobs

To start, I'm from Tx. I just applied for my pharmacy tech license 3 days ago, did my fingerprints today, should I be applying to jobs now? Or should I wait a bit? I'm not sure how long it'll take to get my license, I don't have a trainee license nor do I have work experience in this particular field, so I'm not exactly expecting to hear back anytime soon considering my resume probably won't stand out at all. But I would like to find a job asap. Is it a waste of time to apply to jobs right now while I'm waiting on my license? I'm worried about hearing back from a job, and telling them "Yeah I actually don't have a license yet, still processing" and being rejected for that. (I do have it listed on my resume that my license is processing btw)

Just passed PTCE, questions on license and job applications

To start, I'm from Texas. I just passed the PTCE today! I'm wanting to start working asap. According to PTCB, it'll take 1-3 weeks for my official exam results/certification. Once that is tied to my account, is it as easy as going online to register/apply for my license? And once my license is processing, is it smart to start applying for jobs immediately? I'm wanting to find an entry level job in a hospital, not too interested in retail pharmacies. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
