INTERN Explanation: This is what we call this in the USA. They are called interns, because they don't necessarily continue as employees after they graduate. It implies an opportunity to receive professional experience while still attending school. From Merriam-Webster: Main Entry: 3in·tern Variant(s): also in·terne /'in-"t&rn/ Function: noun Etymology: French interne, from interne, adjective Date: circa 1879 : an advanced student or graduate usually in a professional field (as medicine or teaching) gaining supervised practical experience (as in a hospital or classroom) - in·tern·ship /-"ship/ noun Reference: http://www.m-w.com |

Intern Explanation: Just wanted to add my opinion to the mix. Based on the limited context provided, "trainee" is not appropriate since the person is not going to continue at the company. An intern (although trained) is focusing on education rather than employment. |

intern Explanation: I have always translated this as "intern" - trainee seems to be a much narrower term and, as someone else pointed out, tends to imply that the individual will stay on as an employee of the company, rarely the case with interns. |
