If you disclose this information to the unemployment office, you will be denied benefits. The reason you will be denied is based on your availability to seek and accept immediate full time work.

Some may have you collect on a former employer if you are still in the benefit year and you had claimed unemployment before your present job. Much depends on the state you work in and their criteria. Contact your state unemployment office for clarification.
