Thanks for the reply. I did call today, and they said for the initial license, it depends on when the license is approved, and when my birthday is. Since my license was approved March 2010, and my birthday is in April, that means the license will only run to April 2011. Seems like a strange process to me, but that's how it is.
I was getting nervous because I was going to a follow up interview for a pharm tech position at UCSF (with the interviews being done through a staffing agency) and my renewal was still being processed. I was hoping to find out it was actually a typo, and tell them I could work right away. (They had said they were looking to hire as soon as this week.)
Turns out they never even asked about the status of my license today. He just wanted to make sure that I have my Certification (which doesn't have to be renewed for months yet), and looks like there are multiple positions to be filled, and they do know I have class until the 26th, which doesn't seem to be a problem. They said that although they're not guaranteeing anything, they did like me, and they'll be finishing their interviews by Friday, so I should be hearing from them again soon enough.
[Note: I never sent my information to them. It was sent by the Pre-Pharmacy Association I was in, over a year ago. I woke up on my birthday to find an email telling me about a possible pharm tech position so I took the opportunity. My renewal was going to be fully processed by the time the semester finished, the time when I was going to be job hunting.]
