Should I take an unpaid internship if it is offered?

Consider what you will learn, how this will add to your base of experience for your resume and next job opportunity, and remember that for healthcare and non-profits unpaid internships are common. You have to weigh out if an unpaid internship is a benefit to you in the long run or if you should continue to pursue a paid opportunity.
