Shameless Exploitation: Unpaid Internships Okay, that’s a bit dramatic, but I’m trying to make a point. Having just finished interviewing some truly amazing PR Round Table scholarship applicants, I find myself seething at the state of our industry. Nearly all these students were, at some point, forced to accept unpaid internships to get more experience. […]

Why do we do this? What motivates us, captivates us, and engages us to choose a career in what is ranked as the 5th most stressful job (careercast.com) out there — Public Relations Executive.
