In Washington DC and Hollywood, I think it's pretty common. I haven't heard of this at all in Silicon Valley though. In fact interns are pretty well paid, $750

I haven't heard of this at all in Silicon Valley though. In fact interns are pretty well paid, $7500/month at my previous company.
- the_only_law 5y agoSpeaking of DC aren’t all government internships unpaid?
- throwaway3699 5y agoYes, but I hear if you're attractive then the Commander in Chief will make it worthwhile.
- sybercecurity 5y agoNot all. Some provide a stipend and/or housing allowance. Depends on the program and the agency running it. Congress now pays their interns too, though I don't know if this extends to campaign interns: https://cha.house.gov/member-services/house-paid-internship-program https://cha.house.gov/member-services/house-paid-internship-...
- Jtsummers 5y agoPolitical interns, no clue. However if you're working for the government and not a campaign, then you're almost certainly getting paid in the US.
