can i start applying to hospitals even tho i just passed the board the other day?

[recentpasser]

i know i have a lot of competition, simply not enough hospital jobs for the thousands of RNs in the country. can i start applying to hospitals even though i found out i passed the board only the other day? i don't have a cartificate of board rating yet, no license, no PNA membership yet.

what's your experience guys?

chances of being hired or to be on the training is slimmer bec. you do not have the necessary reuirements yet, they might tell you have it completed first or they will keep your file, but i doubt it. with piles of applications, they might shred it.
