If something is free, always figure out how they get money because nothing is free, even from non-profits: 1. Is it a non-profit getting money from donations? If so, who is giving the donations and why. 2. Do they make money from placement fees? i.e. if they place you with a partner, do they get a cut? 3. Do they make money by contracting you out to companies for a lower rate than you would get on your own, and they take a cut? 4. Is this a special pipeline sponsored by a 3rd party and if so, why are they sponsoring? 5. Probably some more things, I'm sick right now and my brain isn't working...
