It depends on whether you’ll gain some valuable experience from it. It seems a little strange though since most modern day internships will at least pay minimum wage.

Personally, I don’t have any experiences with internships but I have friends who regret not doing them. Some jobs require 3-5 years of experience in the same field and the only way to acquire those 3-5 years is through internships. For the most part, these jobs are paying 6 figures a year. Essentially, the experience you gain and the connections you will make is your pay. If you are interested in the pharmaceutical field, i would suggest you take it. If you are in it for money, i would suggest being a waiter at a restaurant that attracts tourists.
