Looking to move to a new state

I currently live in Texas and have a Texas license, but am looking for a change. I want to apply to jobs in other states and move to wherever I get the best offer, but on all of the job postings I see it says that a license from that state is required. Does anyone know if this means I have to have the license in that state to even apply or can I get it later if I get the job?

    If they have an opening they most certainly want to get someone up and running ASAP. Better to make a decision on what state to move to, obtain a license, then job hunt IMO.

    I've moved cross country twice in the past 5 years. I second what Emergent said - it is easier to figure out what state you wish to go to and start the process. That way when you do apply you can at least tell them you have already started the process of obtaining the license. I've never had an issue getting an interview or being offered a job this way.

    If you hold a multi-state license you can practice in any compact state, that broadens your current license to 24 other states. You would have to obtain your license in the new state after establishing residency but until then you could utilize the license you have. Otherwise like other's have said I'd decide on the state and start the license by endorsement procedure. Some states are notoriously slow.
