Intellidemia believes that interns are not gophers, mere data entry robots waiting to be called to their menial duties, e.g. the café run. No; not here. The Syllabus Geeks believe interns are much more than minions; they're valuable assets. They're unpaid, full-time, uninsured labor, meant to carry the extra weight of the company on their, already taxed by 21 credits, shoulders. Their sole existence when they enter the office is to execute upon web design, the development of collateral materials, code mobile apps, hunt and qualify leads, and the list goes on and on. No, seriously…our interns rock and we like to have a party every month to show them (and their families) how much we appreciate their extraordinary work.
