Can you get prime student if you're not a student?
I recently received a call from a recruiter asking if I was still a student, and whether I wanted to work for a company that does not pay my salary.
This is the first time I've ever been asked this question by a recruiter, and I'm not sure what to do. Do I just say yes, and then they'll assume that I'm not a student? Should I say no and risk being labelled as a liar? Or is it something that doesn't matter much anyway?
It's not a lie, because it's not a lie to have a job. You could have a part-time job and still be a student, but I wouldn't call that lying. It's just that people tend to want to look at degrees and make assumptions. I know I did.
I had a part-time job when I was in college. I was a full-time student.
You did nothing wrong by having a job. People assume that if you're not a student, you must be able to afford school, so they assume that you don't need a job. Just because you had a job doesn't mean that you don't need a degree. In fact, I'd consider it a good sign that you were able to have a job while in school. I didn't have a job until after I graduated.
"Do I just say yes, and then they'll assume that I'm not a student?". Yes. I don't see the issue with it. You just have to be careful what you say about it. You don't want to lie, but you also don't want to sound like an idiot. If you just say "yes, I'm a student" and then they ask you why you don't have a degree, then you can just tell them that you dropped out before you finished your degree.
When I was a student, I had a part-time job, and I never told anyone. People would ask me why I didn't finish my degree and I would tell them I quit. I think it's a good idea to do that. It's not lying or anything.
"Yes, I'm a student. No, I didn't finish my degree. No, I didn't quit.
