Wages and term of employment
March 15 through October 4, 2015
Starting at $8.00 per hour

 

This is the MN minimum wage...  One can double that as a vendor at Target Field at the same starting wage, plus 12-15% commissions, plus tips...

 

Just sayin'

I'm pretty sure that's the going rate for internships.
