Some college internships pay twice what regular workers earn investinyou (In partnership with acorns.)
Forget backpacking through Europe. Scoring an internship during a break from college is key to landing a great job once you graduate.
"They are more important today than ever before," said Jill Tipograph, co-founder of career coach firm Early Stage Careers in New York. And for some of the top internship spots, you can almost double what the average full-time worker earns. Tech companies, in particular, are using internships as a pipeline for hiring and that means offering competitive salaries to find talent, said Amanda Stansell, an economic research analyst at job website Glassdoor. "These interns are not making copies."
During the most recent recession, employers dramatically scaled back. With fewer workers, "you needed to have people who could perform," Tipograph said. Factor in increased automation and some entry level jobs no longer exist, she added, "that means you need experience and exposure before you graduate."
