    Would be nice, I myself did an unpaid internship, and a year later I’m still trying to recoup the costs of it all. Monthly bus & train fair (~180€) + new clothes (because dress code) + food (university cafeteria is way cheaper) did get quite pricy.

      This is horrible! I hope it was worth it for your career at least? I don’t understand why they wouldn’t at least cover the costs for things they’re imposing on you like the dress code for example.

        It was a mandatory internship, 12 weeks. I learned things, but most of all I learned that I sure as hell do not want to work there. International company with a start-up mentality.
