[quote=Anonymous]Sadly, unpaid internships are the norm. The fact is, even masters degree/law students are willing to take unpaid internships for the experience (and resume line). It has been this way for a while, especially in 'soft' fields such as politics, pr, marketing, media, journalism, etc. If you're unwilling to accept an unpaid gig while you are in school, you're likely to find yourself falling behind your peers who sacked up. Working a second job is not difficult, and most supervisors of unpaid interns are very accommodating. Especially on Capitol Hill, unless your boss (some lowly legislative correspondent) is a real ass, they will not have an issue with you leaving a half hour early to get to your paying gig. They get it - as they likely had to do it as well. Hell, look at Paul Ryan.[/quote]
