THey'll probably ask but they'll prohibit you from putting them on your resume...

What place does that?

ie they will fire you


Internship applicants are a dime a dozen

but how will they prohibit you from putting them on your resume?

I was eluding to the fact that they would fire you....and perhaps wouldn't give you a good reference...I was jsut messing around.


<---was jsut agreeing with the crowd in his own way letting the OP know that it is normal for the pay on internships to suck

So, I've been working as an intern for a company for about a month now. I'm getting paid $13 an hour, which is a lot better than what I'd make anywhere else.

However, I just found out they're charging $120 an hour for my services. Being an intern, they pay no benefits, holidays, or anything else for me. I think that's pretty crazy, and that I'm being underpaid for the work I'm doing. They are very happy with my work, and will be offering me a job after I graduate in December.

My question is, should I ask for a raise? They are making $107 an hour off of me being there.. that's $4280 a week or over $200k a year. If so, what would a more appropriate wage be?

Billing you out liek that is normal, but I can not believe they are charging $107! That's insane especially considering your experience. I'm surprisedtheir customers let them do this as they should have to disclose your work history while justifying bill rates. I'd imagine $70 would be a fair price though.

They're paying me about $27/hour for an internship at an engineering company this summer.
