Method of Madness:
Having rich parents also means it's more likely that they have an in at a big company, so you can get a fairly high-paying job after you graduate! :psyduck:

Barmymoo:
I suppose it makes sense for a company to prefer to hire people who have already demonstrated that they're prepared to work hard for no pay.

Method of Madness:
What a terrible mindset we've accepted as a society :psyduck:

cesium133:
Don't know how it works for sure, but I would think if they're grad students in library science, this would be part of their graduate assistantship, in which case they would be getting paid for it (not particularly well, but it's a lot better than nothing).

Neko_Ali:
I had that basically my last semester of university. Instead of teaching us anything in class, we were expected to find an internship for the last three months. They would not help us find one. It wasn't working with the school, which was a tiny technical college anyway. So basically, we were supposed to pay the school for the privilege of finding our own unpaid jobs. If you didn't they gave you an unsupervised project as a grade that basically amounted to busy work.

Yeaaaah... I didn't have a lot of respect for my university. And this was after the semester on computers where I paid then to become a sort of teacher's assistant. I already knew all of the (very basic) computer instruction they were teaching us, so half the class would turn to me for help instead of the teacher....
