An employer who offers 75 percent of
its interns jobs upon graduation uses its internship program as a recruiting tool, and that's good for the intern,» says Rothberg.
The reason so many companies were able to get away with violating the law (because it really was so clear that Connecticut employment lawyer, Daniel Schwartz, described the ruling as «far from shocking,» on Twitter) was because
interns didn't want to complain because they were afraid they wouldn't get any internships, which then lowers their chance of getting a real
job upon graduation.
