Even though you desire a paid internship, sometimes your wish might not be granted. Worry not, there are still some amazing advantages behind getting an unpaid internship and those would be:-
- Academic Credit- Even if you get an unpaid internship abroad, you still get to have academic credit that will get your grades up a notch and will help you strongly after graduation with the employment companies and all. A real life working experience will surely help you get a better job in future and the class credits are always a plus.
- Living Stipend- If due to some reason you are promised a paid internship, but the company fails to provide you so, they can compensate you with a living stipend like a place to stay, your food budget and living expenditure in a new state.
- Experience Alone- Getting an unpaid internship does come with so many additional advantages like getting to know the place better, their culture, their people and a real life organisation working tactics and details, that can help you become an asset in the future organisations you apply to.
