I’m not sure how to identify what is a real internship vs a cold call center internship
I got an email back from AXA Partners for the position “Finance Intern” and the listed requirements is stuff like “Assist senior accountants”, “Prepare financial reports” etc.
But upon a bit of research I am reading a few people calling AXA jobs pyramid scheme-y, at least the “advisor” internships where they make you rent a cubicle.
Before I get into the interviews and get excited/hopeful, wanted to ask this subreddit and see if you guys can judge whether I’m about to really get some solid experience here or if I’m about to be asked for 50 close contacts…
*I will say one green flag is that there is a respectable hourly salary, rather than a sketchy commission only system…
