This will be different

Yesterday, I had my very first university event. But instead of dressing up and heading to campus, I dusted off my webcam and plucked myself in front of my computer screen.

Now, before you ask, no, I didn't forget to put on pants, I just made it glow in the dark PJs. It was a Meet&Greet for my program, and while not everyone involved was part of my class, I'm thrilled to be studying with this amazing group of people for the next 3.5 years.

I'm studying marketing, which is my passion, and this program includes a mix of academic coursework and an unpaid internship. It's a lot to take on, but I'm ready for the challenge. Unfortunately, I managed to catch a cold a week before classes start. I know, right? Murphy's Law strikes again. But I'm determined to push through and make the most of this experience, even if it means attending classes from the comfort of my own bed.

On top of my studies, I also have a side job to make ends meet. It's not easy, but I'm determined to make it work. 

So, as I prepare for my first official day of classes on Monday, I can't help feeling a mix of excitement and nerves. But I'm ready to dive in and embrace this journey with open arms.

Because of this, students from low-income families may find it costly to work for a company or organization that doesn’t pay. Instead of spending that time getting experience in their desired field, some would rather find a minimum wage job in the service industry to ensure that they have food on the table.

Be there gold? Nay. Be there jewels? Nay. Be there the 2-3 years of experience required of ye to land an entry-level buccaneering position? Aye. . Before ye joins, ye should know that, as an intern, ye won’t learn to raid merchant vessels just yet, fer ye is not qualified for such skilled work. And ye certainly won’t learn to sword fight, fer it be far too dangerous for but an intern, and the liability insurance would be through the roof. . But ye will learn other important pirate skills like swabbing the decks and scrubbing barnacles off the keel. It be not the most interesting of pirating tasks, but necessary tasks they be just the same. Also note that, be ye a lady pirate, ye may be asked to take on additional chores on the ship like darning socks and cleaning the pots and pans in the galley. ‘Tis not that we believe the men pirates can’t do those things, it’s just that ye lady pirates be so much better at them than they. We hope ye understands. . Many a prospective intern has inquired about our ship’s swag-sharing policy, so we want to be totally transparent here. Our crew would love to share our pirate booty with ye, but the reality is that privateering be a difficult trade what with the constant battles with the Spanish Armada and other pirate vessels, so we cannot afford to give our pirate interns a share of our spoils at this time. But rest assured, my hearties, that ye shall be recompensed in the promise of future plunder! .

An internship is either a paid or unpaid opportunity to gain short-term job experience

Should Interns Be Paid?

Original post here: https://www.grb.uk.com/blog/should-interns-be-paid

Our first intern of the summer, Phoebe, has written this excellent blog post on the value of paying or not paying a student during their internship. Read on for more...

With a rising average of 2.2 million students currently graduating from a UK university every year, it is without a doubt that a degree alone is no longer enough. With graduate figures indicating that 20% of all graduates achieved a first class degree in 2015, and a significant 51% left with an upper second, it is no surprise that the search for extracurricular activity has hit its peak within the last 5 years. Whilst many students are making conscious decisions to engage in such opportunities, the question lies in who is gaining more, and should the intern's wage be reflective of this?

Essentially, does a student's time equal money?

Is it illegal to not pay an intern?

With many internships being advertised as unpaid opportunities, it's a hot topic whether or not students deserve to be financially rewarded for their work. The law states that if an internship is advertised as either voluntary, part of a compulsory placement or to shadow a colleague, then technically they are legally not entitled to pay, especially if the position is for less than a year. But with the looming notion of brand transparency, it is the likes of Glassdoor and Rate My Placement who are exposing negative experiences within the working world. If an intern feels that they have been exploited throughout their time, it simply takes an (anonymous) unfavourable review to hit the web and be exposed for all to see. Many would question the attitude that just because you don't have to pay, it doesn't mean you shouldn't.

Why do companies opt for unpaid internships?

Just because an intern is not paid, doesn't mean that they don't come at a cost. It's a sure fact that many businesses provide excellent internship scheme, investing substantial time and money into ensuring that the experience is beneficial for both parties - even if the intern does not receive a wage. By providing focused training and consistent one-to-one contact, it is likely that colleagues alter their focus during the working day in order to nurture the intern. However, this could likely create a backlog of tasks that are not performed. This results in additional hours of work for the full-time employee, creating an increase in staff outgoings. Whilst businesses welcome interns with open arms, many justify that if it puts them at a disadvantage, then the grounds for lack of pay may be reasonable, especially for SMEs with a minimal budget.

Many would also argue that the opportunity to gain experience alone is rewarding enough. Students should be grateful in being able to simply slot into a working environment and gain invaluable knowledge and skills. An article by The Spectator suggested that by paying student interns, it removes their value of voluntarianism, and instead promotes a mentality focused on instant reward, unreflective of the real working world. Many suggest that an internship should be regarded as a taster into a particular profession; it is a snapshot rather than the whole picture (the whole picture being the gain of a working wage and the added stress alongside).

Why is it worth paying an intern?

The first thing to consider is that by not paying interns, you essentially are only supporting students from a more stable economic background. With sources such as Forbes Magazine suggesting that internships are crucial in the development of an individual's career, it is increasingly difficult for students from a lower socio-economic standpoint to engage in these opportunities. Many students are already up to their eyeballs in student debts; they rely on part-time jobs to fund their living costs, rent and travel. It is, therefore no surprise that internships become a burden if students are expected to work for free. In essence, unpaid positions only pose an attraction to students who are already financially sufficient, thereby creating a deficit in opportunities.

Furthermore, The Muse suggests that internships are more likely to be successful experiences, for both the intern and employer, if they are paid. If employers are providing a wage, then it is likely that the student's presence and time are significantly more valuable. Stereotypical 'internship' tasks, such as coffee-making and photocopying, may be minimised if payment is involved, with more emphasis on tasks that utilise their full abilities. A knock-on effect is therefore created, allowing individuals to feel valued within their positions. With interns feeling as though they are making an impact, it is likely to increase their enjoyment, enthusiasm and engagement in the programme. As it is said, you reap what you sow.

Students are unlikely to have an agenda focused on making a profit out of these opportunities, but more simply a concern to cover their costs (travel, food, missed work shifts). When deciding on whether or not a student intern should be paid, your decision should be based on the pros and cons for both your company and the student. A balance needs to be struck between enjoyment, performance and rewards. Remember, your brand's reputation is on the line.

Complaint: unpaid internships

Going through both undergraduate and graduate school I have had to work. I have never been able to take an unpaid internship, as the time I can spend not devoting to my studies I need to be working to earn enough to live and feed myself. There is definitely a cycle of financially stable and privileged peoples getting internships, especially internships at well known and respected institutions during their studies that either translates directly into employment or helps them secure work somewhere else. 

It is especially frustrating when some of these institutions in the non profit field can afford to offer paid internships and simply do not. It is not many people who can afford to live in a city like New York and work without receiving a salary. A person shouldn’t have to choose between paying rent and getting useful experience.

It’s Time To Ban Unpaid Internships

“ With nearly half of all #internships unpaid and the majority obtained through personal networks, its not surprising that they are largely for the benefit of wealthier students with strong social networks and parental connections. This link between privilege and internships is nothing new; nor is the call for change.”

New Task: 

DEFINE AND PRESENT TOPIC

Refine the brief introduction paragraph that defines the topic and angle of your campaign.

Remember these prompts:

THEME – unpaid internships in the graphic design industry for new graduates in NZ.

FOCUS – want to change this paradigm/norm creating awareness of it to the NZ design institute/board/students board.

ANGLE - from the new graduates point of view to the higher institutions of design in NZ

POINT OF DIFFERENCE - direct, sharp serious, catchy, minimalist, strong.

SHINING A LIGHT ON - something that is a semi-hidden issue and I would like to rise awareness for.

(HOW TO CALL IT? #pay the interns? #unpaidinternships #internshipsaren’tvolunteering) - Will think further into it.

PRESENT BRIEFLY, READ TO THE CLASS:

#paytheinterns is a social campaign in NZ to raise awareness about the fact that many students in their last semester of university or as new graduates have to work for free in order to start their career as graphic designers after university, but this shouldn’t be the norm.

Very often internships are unpaid, or employers offer to compensate the transportation or food costs for the week of work, which still isn’t a pay.

Often interns need to work beside these internships to financially sustain themselves independently, and can only do so part-time because of the time implied in the internships. When these internships are unpaid, the number of students able to undertake these internships reduces to the ones able to be financially supported by their family.

It will possibly create a questionnaire to student to recollect data about it, and a petition towards the NZ Designers institute and their student board.

This campaign is directed to all design students and new grads in NZ, taking into account the living costs of NZ, and that their time is worth at least the minimum wage.

Feedbacks from teacher: to make it more relevant to New grad only, rather than last year students.
