The Era of Internships Are Over, Never Hire An Intern Again

Clearly, the title is a bit over-dramatic and overstated, but the question of whether hiring interns makes sense anymore needs to addressed.  Fall seems to have arrived early this year and so have the intern lawsuits.  Lawsuits against employers by unpaid interns are becoming common and very public.  Fall is the season, when these cases come out of the woodwork because the interns have just returned to school and everyone is swapping stories. Next thing you know, the intern you hired is pissed and consulting an attorney on a class action lawsuit.
