<p>redroses is definitely spot on. I started summer internship searching in January, and it was the very depressing and stressful. I tried almost every resource to find a job, but didn’t have any luck. However, with persistence, I ended up working two part time summer internships, one was paid, the other wasn’t. I gladly accepted the unpaid internship because I knew that our economy is in a sh1thole, and I know jobs are hard to find nowadays. </p>
<p>My friends and family ask me why I accepted unpaid internships? The reason is because I know that I could possibly gain valuable experience, not only for my resume but most importantly THE PEOPLE YOU WORK WITH, THE TYPE OF WORK YOU DO and THE TYPE OF ENVIRONMENT YOU’LL BE PLACED IN THE FUTURE. I put all caps to emphasize the importance of working for anyone even if it is a unpaid position.</p>
