BBC Radio 4 - The Bottom Line, Internships

How useful are internships as a route into full-time, paid employment?

How useful are internships as a route into full-time, paid employment? Who gains more from internships - the intern or the employer? Evan Davis and guests discuss.

For many graduates an internship has become the default route to full-time, paid employment. But getting a good placement is competitive and in some cases poorly paid or unpaid. What does this mean for social mobility and diversity in the workplace? Evan Davis and guests discuss the pros and cons of internships.
