Disgusting and exploitative is an understatement.

This is blatantly taking advantage of many kids who have no previous work experience and are told ‘this is how it is’.

What a joke. I hope it’s fixed with the review of universities and then international students get some relief next.

Not only is it unpaid work, students are accruing debt for the ‘teaching component’ of the placement course/unit.

Oh, do the 3-7 year residency process next, where hourly wages are usually below minimum wage!
