A pass is a pass. You will also have to scan your fingerprints somewhere and fill out some registration forms from your state's pharmacy tech board site. The whole certification/license process, depending on your state, can take up to 2 months.

Well, technically, you're certified now... you just can't prove it officially. So, you could go to an employer and say you're C.PhT and stuff, and say "hey in a month I'll get my cert" but do note that until you receive your paper cert., you won't be able to get a state LICENSE. Now every state varies in what they want and whether the license is really even useful / necessary, so you'll need to look that up. Google whatever State BoP you need.
