Factors to consider when deciding whether to do "free work"
- Do they pay other people that do the same type of work you do? What about their competitors?
- Will I learn "enough" from this interaction that I can just call this a part of my education?
- Is it public work with my name on it or am I just saving them cash to do something that should be paid for?
- Will the company pay closer attention and treat my work seriously if I get paid?
- Who are the people that can possibly notice me through this work? What are the chances that they will get to hire me professionally?
- What is the risk if I do this work for free? If not?
