Internship

Also called: internships, intern, interns, summer intern, summer internship, paid internship

A short stint of work, usually paid, for a student or recent graduate, often over a summer. The intern gets experience, and the company gets help and a look at a possible future hire. US labor rules limit when a for-profit company may leave an internship unpaid.

For example: A startup hires a computer science student as a summer intern to build an internal dashboard, then offers part-time work during the school year.
