Make them work 10-12 hour shifts, 6 days a week, at the same job and pay rate as their lowest paid part-time employees.
I assume those are interns who likely don't get paid.
Used to be, interns in tech got paid. Not sure how it works today. But it was kind of an IP ownership / copyright thing. They didn’t pay a lot though.
Now the intern pays the school thousands of dollars for the privilege of working for free.
