These days people get internship in there second year of college and continue as an intern for 2 years. Companies don't allow them a full time position citing college regulations. I think this is unfair to candidates as they do full time work at interns compensation and position. Do you think this is justified?
I don't think interns does as much work as a full time and also expectations are different from them are different.
Atleast it works like this in my org.
Correct me if I am wrong
Initially yes, but after 6 months or so, they are fully immersed in the culture and codebase to the point that teammates often forgets that the person is still an intern. I have also seen interns being assigned on call responsibilities which is Ideally a FTE domain
I see
Can you please share few conpanies which hires interns >6months ?
I will share with my outgoing interns :)
Imho if you're sticking around for more than 2 years in the same org as an intern, the problem is with you, not the org. The org will obviously milk work from you at 1/4th the salary, and slap you with a "work experience" certificate.
Jump ship, change org every 6 months, 6 months is enough to learn beginner and new stuff in depth, and jumping ship helps in learning in breadth. I did 5 internships, all in different domains, some 6 month, some 3 months, learnt a shit ton of stuff.
Become Chief Intern Officer gave that role to our intern and paid him good he loved managing other interns tho😁
Next what? Chief Intern Officer
