And who says they aren't going to???? Or are just assuming its going to be an unpaid or cheap internship and not a paid one?

I did a free internship and was greatful for the valuable experience I got that was worth more in my job hunting than any of my qualifications plus I got a nice bonus for the job I did at the time.

It would be nice if everyone could afford to work unpaid

I remember the days well when any Bod could get a job working for the club on the back of a few pints in the pub with those who were in charge of the club so to knock something that is very 21st century beggars belief a bit. I don't like unpaid work at all but if it helps some-one along the way in the workforce so be it.

As I said, fine if you or your parents can afford for you to take unpaid work.

There's still no getting away from the fact that it is exploitative and I would hope our club would be above that

I never said I could and FYI I couldn't really so did other jobs on top to make it pay. Like the ad says its an opportunity and people will either take it or not. Like I said I looked at the bigger picture & what the benefits would be for me so i took the opportunity and have not looked back since. If it wasn't for the opportunity I was given I doubt I would now be running my own company.

I could have taken the easy option and taken a paid job for something I didn't really want to do as a career but I stuck it out and for me that chance

Correct.
If there's a job of work to be done, pay the suitable candidate a wage for doing it!

I would hope both or one of you have actually contacted the club and confirmed whether it is an unpaid or paid internship and the actual specifics of it before running down the club about providing an opportunity for someone.

Don't be daft.

Great opportunity for a student over the Summer. Students have changed since these two were that age, most nowadays budget their student finance over 52 weeks anyway, so would jump at the chance.

Think it's a good idea.

This could give someone the opportunity to gain valuable work experience, it seems that employers are not just looking for relevant qualifications but also experience in the work place. Paid or not it can offer better prospects for future employment, my daughter recently completed an unpaid internship and has now been offered full-time employment within the same company. Good idea by FC.

I don't own my own business but to an employer would an unpaid training program benefit his'her selection to other people??
(Even though i don't no if the program is unpaid/paid)

Reason i ask this is because 9/10 when you go for a job there's usually competition.

Who says its unpaid ? We pay our interns. Paid or unpaid its sounds like a good opportunity to get in introduction into a tough job market.

No one is being forced to take the job.

Classic

classic codfish thread

How would you know?

After all you only joined 3 months ago, or were you previously banned and had to invent yet another persona?

FWIW, no matter how much I love the club, I simply cannot abide any organisation that dresses up worker exploitation as "an opportunity".

Thank you

If people aren't happy with the pay, or lack of, they simply won't take it. Simple.

Lefty a's would rather pay them to sit around on their asses all day. No wonder the country has gone to sheet. Thanks Christ thatcher crushed the unions or it would be 10 times worse

50 years ago you may have had an argument.

Have you seen the unemployment figures?

Are you kidding me? Experience in any field is what is most important at the minute. This is a brilliant opportunity for an aspiring sports marketing student or graduate. Bloody hell.

I have, I don't have a problem with FC willing to take someone on & give them a bit of work experience. When applying for most jobs now experience is just as important, if not more important then qualifications. As someone asked earlier how do you know this is an unpaid vacancy btw?

He doesn't, but since when has a lack of knowledge of the facts ever stopped beales spouting off?
