Mandatory Social Media Promotion: They pressure interns to post their offer letters on LinkedIn, tagging them to boost their visibility. Trivial Work: The tasks assigned are basic, such as simple JavaScript calculators or to-do apps, which can easily be found on YouTube, providing little real-world experience. Hidden Fees for Certificates: After completing the basic tasks, they often demand a payment—commonly around ₹99 to ₹500 (or roughly $3 USD)—to receive the "internship completion certificate". No Real Mentorship: These programs typically lack professional mentorship or structured training.
