You Don't Have To Be A Millionaire To Get An Internship
The benefits found in internships are just a click away at Super Interns
Online, June 24, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Earlier this year, the RFK Center for Justice and Human Rights announced an auction being held through CharityBuzz. One of many items up for bid was an unpaid internship as a United Nations Intern. It sold in May for $26,000. At Super Interns, internships are available for everyone and they are free!
"What a shame...and how ironic that the United Nations, which is an organization who's primary purpose is to bring all nations of the world together to work for peace and development, is auctioning off to the highest bidder! Isn't the UN based on the principles of human dignity, justice, and the well-being of all people?" questioned Super Julie Braun, Co-founder and 1/2 of the Dynamic Duo of Super Interns.
The UN did not comment on this story or respond to multiple attempts to contact.
Initially expected to sell for $10,000, the listing for this six week non-paid internship stated:
Gain inside knowledge of just how the UN really operates and have tremendous opportunities to make invaluable connections.
This truly is the ultimate internship opportunity for any college or graduate student looking to get their foot in the door!
For the price many students pay for school tuition, it seems unsettling that this internship sold at such an excessive amount. Super Michelle Demers, the other 1/2 of the Dynamic Duo asked, "What about the expenses that someone would accumulate just living in New York for six weeks, including housing, travel, and food? How much is someone willing to sacrifice for an internship?"
But have no fear, Super Interns is to the rescue! For those who can't afford $26,000 for an internship, here's the good news. Super Interns offers opportunities in many key areas like social media, video production, business development and human resources.
Braun and Demers work with and help interns grow so that they can leverage their internships in to their dream careers. Specializing in virtual internships, intern candidates don't worry about the cost of living or travel expense or the time it takes to get from their home to work.
Demers stated that "Super Interns encourages everyone from age 18-88 to purse their life's passion; our goal is to deliver amazing internships that will ultimately improve their lives."
The Dynamic Duo of Super Interns (www.SuperInterns.com), Super Julie Braun and Super Michelle Demers, have worked with well over 2000 virtual interns all across the country for a variety of businesses and non-profit organizations. They are the thought leaders in the field of virtual internships and are able to train both employers and interns on working effectively in a virtual environment.
