    I don’t know about programmers specifically but they use unpaid interns in droves in other aspects of the software industry, entertainment, politics, law, etc.

      We have them around sometimes but I’m pretty sure there’s a pipeline from local schools so it’s “official” and they’re finishing up their degrees. They usually get hired but not always.
