Can a person hired for 3-6 months be an unpaid intern or is minimum wage required?

If you are hiring a student, not for educational purposes, but to fill a position for three to six months or for your company's benefit, this person should be hired as an employee and paid at least the minimum wage.

"Most "interns" will be considered employees under state and federal law.

You can find more information in the Interns section of the HR Library.​
