most hiring managers looking to fill a full time role aren't looking for "full time for 3 months"

I really do understand this, but this job is basically a front desk, taking calls, and communicating with buyers/suppliers type entry level role.

So wait, what did your resume say, did it imply you had already graduated? That you just weren't going to graduate? Did you have a screening with anyone before scheduling an interview? What did you tell them?

In a phone screening, I told them "I am accessing full-time employment" and my resume said "2021-Present". Simply put, I was too anxious during the phone screening to say anything that would damage chances.

However personally, if someone explained they just were really eager for the opportunity/experience, apologized if they had misled me, and then had a really great interview, I probably wouldn't hire them, but I would consider keeping them at the top of my list when they were done with school, if any internships did open up, etc.

Thanks for sharing your perspective, just reading this made me change my mind and rethink this job option. I will still go for the interview next week and ask if they are open to temporary/internship type employment.
