NETIZENS were lost for words after reading an application from a student seeking an internship at a company.

She had submitted her application to KF Design, a graphic design company which later posted her application on social media.

In her email, the student, who is pursuing her Diploma in Graphic Design, said she was interested in doing her internship at the company. 

She listed her demands, including Grab transport incentives, a room for interns to stay in, breakfast and lunch incentives, a performance bonus, and a salary above RM3,000.

Not knowing how to respond to such requests, the company responded with the caption, "Please don’t… but (we) wish you all the best." 

Netizens said it was absurd for interns to become this aggressive, while another said the intern was probably dreaming. – The Vibes, November 18, 2023
