This question is about coop vs internship.

Does an internship count as employment?

By Zippia Team - Dec. 7, 2022

No, an internship isn't the same as employment. While interns do gain work experience, they are not considered employees and are generally unpaid. Due to their special status, there are a lot of limits on what they can and can't do in the workplace. Their primary objective in the internship is to learn, not work.
