You had an unpaid internship? Hold my beer.

I'd doubt it's fake. I've been in the job market for a junior creative role for about the months now and the same shit happens all the time here. People want the "NEW YAWK CITY BUSINESS" But don't want to pay for it.

The big thing in my field is companies that want an "art director" but by that they actually mean a "graphic designer, animator, videographer, print specialist, product designer, UI/ux artist, and photographer" because they don't have any creative team and don't want to pay for one.

Worst part is that someone desperate enough will take the job and scummy businesses like this will perpetuate.

So don't take jobs like this because you're ruining it for the rest of us.
