Does an "internship" count as employment?
Should I list a public interest internship under the "public service activities" portion of an application or the "employment record" portion?

If you're like Monica Lewinsky, it counts as much more.

If it was regular hours, I would list it under employment, even if unpaid.URMdan wrote:Should I list a public interest internship under the "public service activities" portion of an application or the "employment record" portion?
If it was sporadic volunteering, then public service activities.

I would decide based upon whether or not you were paid.

Sounds like they lean more towards the "public service activities" section

I'd put it under "Work Experience" in your resume but leave it out of employment
