Last Updated: Faclon Labs explained that the confusion was caused by an error from a bot that mistakenly pulled incorrect data into the listing. Remember the viral screenshot of a Mumbai-based company offering an internship with a Rs 10 monthly stipend? The post triggered a discussion on social media, questioning the reality of the post. Now, the company has issued a clarification, and it's quite different from what it seemed. Faclon Labs explained that the confusion was caused by an error from a bot that mistakenly pulled incorrect data into the listing. The company's post read, 'Hello Everyone! This is a typo, and the internship is Rs 10,000/- month. Please reach out to Hr [@] Faclon [dot] com and utkarsh [@] faclon [dot] com. If you are interested in a backend development internship that graduates to a full-time role. Funny how this went live and got so much traction!!!" 'PS: We checked, and this job post isn't from our Employer account but a 'crawled' job by bots, which took 10/- per month erroneously. We will get this checked and removed, but interested folks should apply for internships at 10,000/- month. Manoj Kumar would be really helpful if you could update the post, as this isn't a post by our HR. let's connect to fix this, please," the company added. Manoj Kumar, a software engineer by profession, shared a post on LinkedIn saying that Faclon Labs clarified that the actual stipend is Rs 10,000 per month and not just Rs 10. 'They're offering a solid internship leading to full-time roles. Lesson: Internet pe sab viral hota hai – galti bhi aur opportunity bhi," Kumar said in his post, which also accompanied a screenshot of a clarification posted by Faclon Labs. It all started when an X user named Aditya Jha shared the screenshot in question, captioning it, 'Internship opportunity". The image showed a listing by Faclon Labs for a Backend Developer Intern, offering a stipend of just Rs 10 per month. The position further demands a degree in Computer Science and skills like backend development, architecture, artificial intelligence, DevOps, machine learning, and more with no fixed working hours, adding to the controversy surrounding the low pay.
