Endorsement from MD to CA

Hello,

I graduate in 2 weeks from nursing school and I have already initiated the application process for a Maryland license; however, I plan on working in California. I know this sounds backwards, but as I am short on time, I heard that it is faster to get a license in Maryland first, and then go through the endorsement process to get licensed in California instead of trying to get my first license in California.

My question is, how long does it take to endorse into california after obtaining my Maryland license? If I apply for endorsement in Mid August, will I be able to at least get a temporary Ca license by September?

Thanks!
