>no conversion hire

the purpose of the internship is to let the company consider hiring someone who normally wouldn't qualify. So, yeah no conversion is similar to getting fired.

I do get hired back. But I still gotta leave to go to school for the year. I can't do conversion until graduation.

I don't like going back to the same places anyways; going to new companies lets me figure out what company I will enjoy working for the most when I do graduate.

Not always. I found at least a third of 'internships' were just free labor, no matter how well you mesh.
