New Delhi, June 13: In general, interns are paid a petty sum to do all the jobs that no one else wants to do in order to gain experience. At Google however, not only do interns work on developing projects, they are paid $6,000 a month and given a host of benefits including housing, gym membership, bowling and food - all for free. According to Glassdoor, not only has Google topped Fortune 500's top U.S company to work for, it also has the highest-paying internships. On average, interns are paid $5,800 a month, although a specialized software engineer can make as much as $6,700.Recently, Google made a video that documents the first week at Google for five actual interns, as it attempted to portray the work experience at the company — probably not the way it's seen in the movie "The Internship."Here's a look at it:At first interns going for a team bonding session!
