I was always wondering about similar thing with interns

• bsimpson 7y ago
  What are you wondering? Interns usually work for small periods of time between school cycles. They get interesting projects, because internships are effectively a recruiting tool for new grads. With the amount of prep work and oversight/mentorship that goes into an internship, it's not obvious that they benefit the company outside of recruiting. If the argument is "TVCs tolerate more because they fear retribution/loss of access to a full-time role," that might happen for interns too. (I haven't studied either group, so I'm not qualified to say.) If the argument is that "TVCs are being exploited to minimize the number of full-time roles," that definitely doesn't apply to interns.
