Here's what it's really like to intern at Facebook
Few will have more bragging rights than former Facebook interns.
The social media giant has a particularly robust and perk-laden program, earning it first place on last year's internship ranking from job site Glassdoor.
So, what's it really like to be a Facebook intern at its Menlo Park headquarters?
Think cool projects, cushy wages, and an emphasis on empowerment. Facebook treats its interns like regular employees, so even though they're taking living together dorm-style in free apartments and taking the occasional coordinated trip down the coast to Santa Cruz or Yosemite on the company's dime, they're working their butts off too.
A few 20-somethings who've been through the program dished on what it was like:
- I spent $2,000 for 7 nights in a 179-square-foot room on one of the world's largest cruise ships. Take a look inside my cabin.
