Nothing stops you from applying for jobs.
It is not in the spirit of the visa. It is grey area but if HO becomes aware they may be able to say you are in violation of the purpose of the visa. Whether they can curtail your visa is questionable still

UKVI does not have time and resources to monitor your moves. Your are free to apply for jobs and switch to Tier 2 without any issues
