      I want to create a massive internship program. Something like $15-20/hr for 3 months, you get a Lambda School grad to intern for you. If you like them you can bring them on FT at a full salary. Would you be interested in something like that?

      You get a scrappy Lambda School student who has been slinging code for 7 months and is ready to ship more code for <$3k/month. They get the first 3 months of work experience in the bag.

      I'm 100% serious, and I could have students ready to go tomorrow. email internships@lambdaschool.com and let me know what/who you're looking for, and we'll get you hooked up.

      To be honest the price should probably be closer to $25/hr, I just want it to be a no-brainer for the employer

          Ooooooh. I’m up in Seattle. I don’t think any of the companies I’m working closely with need any of your tracks right now though. Maybe data science.

          I would just assume the talent isn’t good at $15/hr and never explore it. At $25/hr it’s more reasonable.

          My take: real cost of an intern is the time for mentorship + spin up + potentially dealing with bugs Setting salary below $20/h sends signal that the above cost will be high and will act as more of a negative signal than the lower wage is worth Tl;dr go for 25

          Hey @VTEconDev this would be a total win to get new people to VT looking for experience.

          Important that interns are learning ~$40 / hr type work. But I think this process is good :)

          You might want to talk with @launchcode - they have a very similar system in place.
