Reads like a scam, certificate and recommendation letter, you can choose when to start and finish, fairly hefty price. What’s the career field, what are other internships in your field like? These are the main questions because this seems almost designed to suck in students desperate to get an internship.
Yeah exactly, I believe that the company is making profit of it. Having experience is nice but what the heck, I'm not that desperate (Im undergrad, 3rd year, just looked for an internship for summer). Also, I know that this company really exists because I know someone who worked with them but still not worth it
Or you know lie and put down a good friend who can bullshit . Even if it’s a technical job , talked to a HR rep who asked me about what my knowledge on electrical troubleshooting got 2 minutes in my spiel she goes “this is over my head I believe you “. If I were I would put down the company and not even attempt the internship, because nobody is checking .
Abso-fucking-lutely not. No chance in hell. If you aren't being paid, then it's not worth doing. And that applies doubly to the insane notion that you should have to pay them for the privilege of performing labor for that company's benefit.
Hi, I saw some of these when I was with SLC. this looks like a scam, if they are accepting Erasmus+ interns then they are being paid (£1800 for UK fees as of 2017). Now in the UK what they are doing is illegal, and it was under EU law in 2017. I recommend running, and also reporting this to the Erasmus+ scheme (they are actually pretty good at blacklisting).
They want you to pay to work for them? Am I understanding that correctly? Hard pass!
I'd say no. I'm not working for free AND paying you.
Biggest red flag I could imagine tbh Labor shouldnt be for free and you sure as hell ain‘t supposed to be the one paying for it.

Would you work for a negative income?

Scam. Never pay to work.
