i do agree i told employers i didnt have many jobs because i put my energy into my studies. not many of them like that and i had an employer tell me one time in an interview that many students work and go to school, why couldn't i do that? i just looked at him and said im not other students i am me. he just looked at me and shut up i knew i didnt get the job.

anyway, other employers said that it was good that i put my interest in my studies even though saying all of that didnt land me a job after i graduated from college. they said u dont have enough experience for us congradulations on obtaining the degree, but we want someone who has work history. my mouth dropped hearing not in the office but outside of the office.

if i had to weigh it out who liked me putting my studies first vs those who didnt, id had more who didnt like it in job interviews.
