I’ve been there over two dozen times.
I’m talking about PERSONALLY seeing such a thing.
I’ve heard about them, and even know a few silly souls misguided enough to take them, but have never inquired about wasting my time and letting somebody else reap the benefits.
You can get resume experience and actual MONEY at the same time, but kids just want to party in NYC.
I worked EVERY SUMMER during my undergraduate and graduate years, and every one of those PAID jobs, even the ditch-digging ones, looked a hell of a lot better than unpaid gopher. Especially the summer where The Army paid me to jump out of airplanes.
And don’t use the word “hire” if there isn’t a paycheck involved ;)
You got to jump out of airplanes AND get paid for it??
Cool!
