Make sure you read into your state's laws to make sure you won't get into any trouble by doing work you're not supposed to.
The wording here is fairly misleading. I want to make it very clear that the existence of an unpaid internship does not get the intern in trouble (with the government). It's the employer who would get in trouble (with the government). In that sense there is no such thing as getting "into any trouble by doing work you're not supposed to."
- zachlatta 13y agoThanks for the correction! Unfortunately I'm past the editing threshold, so I can't make the change in the OP. You are absolutely right when you say that it's the employer's responsibility to comply with the law.
