Value of Internships for Students
- Learn practical skills in tech, marketing, and analytics.
- Supplement resumes with actual results and work projects.
- Offer pathways to full-time roles at startups and MSMEs.
- Introduce industry context early in student careers.
Challenges & Considerations
- Interns must be able to check company credibility before they accept internships, as there have indeed been real cases where companies turned out to be non-existent, unprofessional, or did not pay guaranteed stipends.
- Always make sure, whether you are receiving a paid stipend from the internship or not, and what exactly you’ll be doing. This avoids confusion or unpaid exploitation during the internship.
- Websites will sometimes include internships for minimum wage or unpaid internships, which may not be practical or beneficial for students to gain experience and earn income. Be selective in deciding where you’ll be applying.
- Colleges must teach students to recognize fake companies—like phantom websites, missing team details, or unpaid internships—therefore not becoming victims themselves of questionable internship openings.
What Students Should Do
- Use official channels. Refer to the placement cells and incubators.
- Verify company credentials on LinkedIn or official websites.
- Keep detailed records of internship offerings and payments.
- Select internships based on long-term career goals.
- Network during events organized by GCAS, i-Hub, and CIIE.CO.
