Working on a masters degree while looking for work. Should I tell prospective employers?

Sunday, December 9th, 2007
steven asked:

I’m currently working on a masters degree that should help me in my profession in the long run. I’m also currently looking for work. Do you think telling employers about the degree (that I’m still working on) will help me or hurt me? Should I wait to tell them until I’m hired?

My concern is that employers will think my attention will be divided between working for them and studying.

The masters program is self paced, therefore it shouldn’t interfere with work. I’ve taken 2 classes so far and have 10 more to go.
On the other hand telling employers might help me because they will see me as more knowledgeable and commited to my profession.
