NY state require you to get a learners permit and do a driving test. I suspect you also need proof of residence. New Jersey let's you convert an international license to a local license but you need to do a theory test and a test for colour blindness. You also had to prove residence from memory (I had a bank statement addressed to a friend's address).

honestly, it's probably worth also visiting the US and going up to New York state itself and completing a driving test. That way you also have a US ID on top of your ITIN! security validations become so much quicker with this route

I was thinking of getting a learners which is pretty easy - it seems valid for 5 years - and come back at a future date to do a test - wouldn't have time to do it this upcoming trip - at leas that will give a form of ID that is valid for 5 years
I have a friend letting me use his apartment as an address in NY
