Should You Pay Your Student Intern?
"Early on in my career I worked for a smaller web company and it was very clear that their interest in interns was to have them do as much work as everyone else for free. It wasn't really interning or training in my opinion, there was no realistic effort to help these students in any way. It was all about saving money. Even if the internship is valuable, I do feel some sort of small stipend should be provided on a regular basis. A small amount of money for basic travel expenses (such as the bus or train) or food would be greatly appreciated. It doesn't help that most students are taking loans out to go to school to begin with and that these internships actually are an added cost on the student's tuition. Essentially the student is *paying* to work for free. Honestly, not all schools are helpful when trying to choose proper internships either (particularly some tech/vocational schools)... so I feel like issues similar to the one in my first paragraph are simply going to increase."
