Internship programs are great for any company! It gives the organization an opportunity to give back to the next generation of leaders, while those interns are also able to grow and make mistakes in a safe environment.

4. Grammar and spelling, enough said.

3. They will do anything to keep this internship, that means playing the blame game and you can be sure that they didn’t do it.

2. If they really wanted to be successful they should have done their research. 

1. They quit when the going gets tough.

This may not be such a bad thing for you.
