Every year, graduating college students seek internships to secure credits that they need in order to complete the requirements they need to graduate. These unpaid internships are supposed to provide experience to students that will better prepare them for the work environment. However, there are arguments that these unpaid internships are also a form of exploitation. What do you think?
