So I'm a data science student. Just finished my 2nd year and will enter my 3rd final year. I'm getting an opportunity for an unpaid internship. 2 hours a day for 4 days a week for 4 weeks. But it's too far from where I live and just travelling itseld would take 2 hours. I've been applying for paid internships on linkedin and internshala and even emailing some small and mid sized companies myself for about 1 month but didn't get even a single reply. So for now, my this unpaid internship is the only thing I'm getting. And I'm confused if I should take it, because I'm basically working for free and considering the travelling costs and all, for me personally, it just doesn't seem worth it. I also know how crowded the current job market is and how hard it is to get a job rn but I don't just want to be desperate and work for free. So I just want advices from experienced ones, should I take this unpaid internship? Or should I leave it?
