Some states will allow new grads to work with permits while they are waiting to sit the NCLEX, but not all. Check with the BON.

You can not work in the US as a nurse until you have passed NCLEX. I do not think you will qualify to work as a new grad whilst you are waiting but you would need to check with the state BON to be sure
