How much to pay a skilled intern?
The startup I work for is looking to hire an intern to help us with front-end development.
We've found a guy that we like, but we are ignorant to the fair amount that he should be paid.
The position would be in the bay area.
What do you suggest?
- turtle4 17y agoWe pay an hourly equivalent that is about 40-50% of what a starting full-time salary would be at the same position, and have never had problems with enough (quality) applicants. However: - We are in the midwest, without much competition. - We are in a college town where there is mandatory internships as part of the CS program. So YMMV.
- wooster 17y agoI'd shoot for about 80% of the starting salary you'd pay if they were a new full time employee just getting out of college.
