Although we have previously highlighted a definition for the intern, it is still important to present some of its outstanding characteristics.

The intern, as you already know, is a contractor for a company, which in turn has a smaller position, therefore, does not have as extensive a workload as the other employees.

Hiring an intern is temporary, however, it cannot be less than six months.

In addition, if the young person presents positive results with his work, the company can hire him, making him a permanent employee, which, in addition, will result in a higher remuneration and also, a higher workload.

Although some are interns only while they are in higher education, it is allowed to hold such a position, even when in high school.

A fundamental piece of information that should be highlighted is that, while not being hired, an intern does not have a registration with Pis-Pasep, in addition to that he is not entitled to vacation and also, 13th.

Some issues that the company you work for takes into account when hiring are:

• Creativity;
• good communication;
• flexibility;
• analysis capacity;
• leadership;
• good interpersonal relationship;
• Ease of working in a team.

It is important to say that the workload of an intern should not interfere with his/her school schedule.
