Do you think I should mention that I'm doing a PhD? on PostgraduateForum.com

I'm applying for some part time job (technical) and I'm wondering if I should put on my CV that I'm a PhD candidate; should I?

I'm worried that I might put them off! : (

In my department you are allowed to work maximum of 20 hours per week.
Also ask permission from your supervisors.
(In my case it was like:
" I was offered a job..."
sup "NO"
*end of discussion*)
And yes, you should be honest. Employers run internet checks and your name will pop-up.

Were you offered a job during your PhD time?

I really need the money so I've no idea how to go about this : /
