What an intern is there for

 An intern is there to help and assist the supervisor of the respected work that is given to them to complete a task. The interns are there to learn about the business that is of their interest that they have been reading in text books and researched with a twist of hands on training. An intern is not the employer doormat; so the intern should not be demanded to get the employer and the executive team coffee if its not at the will of the intern. The intern should also not be demean to the point that you damaged their character.

The intern must know that they are a great asset to the business; they are there to help it grow. Business uses interns for a reason and one is to share ideas on what will help the business grow and two companies don't have to give a pay check and benefit packages on the interns cause its a temporary position. Interns must know that you are there to do a job that you have an interest in what can be an inspiration for them to be the Chief executive officer (CEO) of the business. Remember that "you have to crawl before you walk" the hands on training that intern is getting may be tough at the beginning; after the work is done and your internship is up, the intern should feel confident in taking on a new task given to them. The confident and courage should be so high, that when the intern is officially applying for a career position they come in saying to themselves that's my job. 

Employers, supervisors and executives remember that interns are there to be educated and inspired. They may just end up becoming your top employer one day that have gotten the business out of downfall financial break. Treat your interns as if they really work for you. Show them the ropes of the business, don't expect them to know everything, remember they are working for very little pay to no pay; so its a passion and dream of theirs. The interns are doing your business a favor; bring the best out the interns you will find that they have brought the best out of you.
