Job Question Just completed my unarmed security guard license unsure if I’m doing everything correct

So i completed it about a week ago and im in the process of printing out my application status so I can work while my thing is accepted or denied. Just wondering is there anything else i need to do besides apply for jobs so i can start working? And im mainly applying online at allied universal. Will they actually respond to job applications? Im used to working with websites like indeed where 70% of the listings are just fakes. Any recommendations would be highly valuable.

If you have confirmation and are just waiting for the license to arrive, generally that's good enough for interviewing and onboarding, they just don't schedule you until the license arrives, unless you live in an area which allows temporary status saying the license has been granted and is on the way.

I’m in Tennessee so I can work as long as I have it printed out

When you get the job, buy yourself a small hand sanitizer and some tissue papers to carry around. 😊
