if you need hand holding, you shouldn't have that internship.
they shouldn't have to pay someone to babysit you. If you're an GA for instance, no one should have to show you how to find quark on the mac.. that's what school is for. An internship you should dig and and use everything you've been studying for almost 4 years and absorb everything thats going on in the work place.
I swear to god once i had this dumb broad come to me like.. "my computer is broken it wont turn on".. turns out she kicked the chord out from her monitors. Im not asking for computer genius' here.. just someone with a clue.
For the ones that cant be just a little independent after given some instructions and directions should be happy stapling, filing, and making copies. :) The others should be pulling their weight and getting their minimum wage and experience.
Back in the day i think internships actually meant something, because people truly left with some good experience. Now i just think college students think of it as another fuck off class.
