Yes, you can. Even with your "paper" license employers will still have to check with your issuing state to verify that you have no pending actions against you. Good Luck!!

Apply now.. In my state; no paper license is mailed out. We only get our name on the website..

Yes go find a job!! I was hired @ a job fair and didn't even know that I passed yet. I found out that I passed when I got home that day. Best of luck!!:specs:
