Default Re: Thinking of doing the Summer Internship

The summer internship is a completely different situation. Your not forced to work 50+ hours a week. In fact, the interns that worked at my branch only worked 2-3 days a week and some of those days were half days. Also, I heard that the interns make almost the same amount of money hourly as the MTs. Plus, your not under the same pressures as the MTs, as in selling DUB and molding into the perfect rental monkey. The intern is really just a helper around the branch and they are a very appreciated help by the branch. Its a great experience for a college student and looks VERY GOOD on your resume when you start applying for a real job. However, do not let the ERAC managers get their claws into you and try to sucker you into ERAC after you graduate! Really look around and talk to the burned out MTs. It will clarify everything that is said on this website. Just do it for the summer, make some extra money, get some experience and WALK AWAY!
