Sent my resume, but haven't taken NCLEX yet

Hi everyone,

I finished my LPN program at the beginning of this month and have registered and paid for the NCLEX. I am just waiting to hear back from the state so that I can pick my date to test. LPN jobs are tough around here so when I saw a job online the other day, I sent them my resume. All other jobs I have had through out my life have always taken a few weeks to hear back from the employer. So I figured that by the time I would hear from them, I would have taken NCLEX. Well, they contacted me and want to meet next week. I am afraid they will be mad that I sent them my resume without yet having my license. In my resume it says that I just graduated and that I don't have any experience as an LPN yet, only CNA. I have had friends (RN's) that have been offered jobs at the local hospital before they have taken the NCLEX. I of course will tell them the situation right away and hope that they will be willing to wait til I get my license if I am a canidate for the position. Any tips for the interview? Should I be worried? Thanks!
