Interns Get a Company Car???
Was just looking on Career Center Connector and found a sales intern position that includes a company car. They will also set you up with corporate sponsored housing - this sound great.
When you are looking into internships and jobs, be sure to take into account other costs associated with the job. Housing, transportation, etc. Especially if you are taking an unpaid position, as those costs can mount pretty quickly when you don't have a paycheck to defray them...
When I was working with the Public Defender Service in Washington DC there was a colleague of mine who was working a part-time job after hours in order to defray the cost of living while doing an unpaid gig. While it would definitely be a bummer to do a full-time internship and work after that, those are investments that will hopefully pay off.
