need advice

    Hi, I need advice on something: basically, I am about to finish the 3rd year of a 4-year degree and I will be looking for a summer job. Due to the fact that I speak a certain language it has always been pretty easy to find something to keep me busy over the summer. This year however it seems that even though there are quite a lot of jobs out there, they tend to be permanent jobs rather than temporary ones. Like, I am getting calls almost on a weekly basis from agencies to see if I am interested in a job, but they're always permanent ones. So I was thinking since I took a gap year between school and college, I could pretend I didn't and say I am graduating this year so I would be available for a permanent job, and then quit after 4-5 months when I have to go back to college. I would feel really bad about doing that as I always try to be honest with my employers, but at the same time I would be really keen to get a job this summer to strengthen my CV...what do you guys think? Thanks!

    be aware that normally you give a months notice if leaving a job, also if you do decide to do it be careful as you may not get the most glowing of references even though you may get the experience and therefore it may be a risk putting it on your cv
