Internships in the games industry are becoming increasingly common, but there are misunderstandings on both sides of the table about what they should involve, what to expect from intern candidates, and what they should lead to.

It will give perspective and advice to interns applying for internships and developers offering them, drawing on the speaker's experience on both sides of the table.
