A paid internship is better than a non-paid internship
Just do your best with the internship and eventually they'll see they made a mistake by not hiring you. We're all rooting for you here, Smiley Keep going

Yeah, I'm a bit bummed out about not getting the full-time job right away, but I'm overall glad a paid internship's coming out of all this. And you're right, Keddy; a paid internship is a lot better than an unpaid one. Something that really ticked me off during job hunting was coming across a lot of good internship opportunities, but not being able to apply because they require you be a current student. This is because they don't pay you, so they gotta give you something at least -- which is college credit. What a shame.
So I'm glad I'm getting a paid internship with this company. Whether or not it turns into a full-time position for me, it'll look good on my resume.
