An internship is a fixed-term training position for white collar and professional workers in which the 'trainee' exchanges his/her services in return for 'on the job' experience. The position may be paid, though usually at a level lower than expectedfor similar work in a permanent position (i.e. a remunerary stipend) or unpaid. In the UK, such placements are most commonly encountered within the fields of medicine, law, architecture, engineering and business and are typically held by recent graduateskeen to develop their skills.
