That’s pretty much every job that’s responded to me. A few weren’t but most places made it clear that if I’m not willing to put in overtime I shouldn’t put in my application. Crunch time is just the standard now. The worst part is even those jobs have thousands of people applying for them, so my odds of even getting noticed at all are tiny. Plus that means any position I get my manager has a thousand resumes lined up just in case they want a rapid personnel switch. Add the fact that a business owner can fire me at anytime without giving a reason, and suddenly even my two advanced degrees won’t save me.
Make them work 10-12 hour shifts, 6 days a week, at the same job and pay rate as their lowest paid part-time employees.
I assume those are interns who likely don’t get paid.

Used to be, interns in tech got paid. Not sure how it works today. But it was kind of an IP ownership / copyright thing. They didn’t pay a lot though.
Now the intern pays the school thousands of dollars for the privilege of working for free.
