The problem might also come for your work permit because they say the wp3 has to applied for from outside Thailand. For what stupid reason i will never know.
you can not be on the initial 90 days you got on entry using this visa, or you must be inside Thailand without an official stay as most schools closed or you might have an valid Extension of Stay. This has to be cancelled when you stop study and you might apply directly for a new Extension of Stay based on Employment but that is only if your new company can meet the requirements. Go with company to the immigration and see what is possible
