An American job site, Glassdoor has announced that interns can make as much as $8,000 every month on Facebook, as it released a list of the 25 highest paying internships in America.
The site, according to CNN Money, said Facebook (FB, Tech30) came out on top with a median monthly pay of $8,000. That would make for an annual salary of $96,000 (and keep in mind, median salary means half of interns are making more than that amount).
Followed by Microsoft (MSFT, Tech30), which pays interns a median $7,100 per month, Salesforce (CRM, Tech30), Amazon (AMZN, Tech30), Apple (AAPL, Tech30), Yelp (YELP), Yahoo (YHOO, Tech30) and Dell (DVMT) subsidiary VMware all made the top 10, offering a median monthly salary between $6,080 and $6,450. Google (GOOG), at $6,000, was stuck at No. 11.
The figures are significantly higher than what’s offered by some major financial institution. Investment management company BlackRock pays interns a median monthly salary of $5,400, while Capital One interns earn a median $5,000 per month. And interns at Deutsche Bank, AIG and Bank of America all make a median monthly salary between $4,570 and $4,640.
