There are several ways to become a PT. The licensing board website has a full explanation here http://www.pharmacy.ca.gov/licensing/index.htm#tch_faqs
My recommendation is to apply for a position in a pharmacy even if it is on the retail side and go from there. Mention on your application that you are working towards your PT license but that until you get it you are willing to work in any department. Even if you start as a cashier it allows you access to pharmacists and managers who can guide you through your state’s PT requirements. Besides most companies prefer to promote to this position from within and some will even pay for the test or test prep materials.
