No you don't, because there is no such thing as an international driving license. There is an international driving permit, but it's merely a translation of your valid license into several languages, and is to be carried with your valid license.

If you have a valid license that NJ would recognize, they may waive the road test if you are a resident of NJ looking to be licensed in the state, and have legal presence in the United States.

An International Driving Permit (IDP) allows an individual to drive their private motor vehicle in another nation only when accompanied by a valid license from their country. The document is approximately the size of a standard passport and is essentially a multiple language translation of one's own existing driver's license, complete with photograph and vital statistics.

<b> It is not a license to operate a motor vehicle on its own </b>

The IDP validation lasts for 12 months from the date of issue, and according to the IDP Vienna Convention remain valid for 3 years. The IDP CAN NOT be used in a country where the holder takes up residence.
