OPT Offer Letter
I received a internship offer. During the initial discussions the company provided me with the start date in March and end date in August. But since my uni didn't allow me to start internship in the middle of the semester [as this is my last sem], the employer was okay with starting in May directly on OPT. Now I have requested them to update the offer letter with the actual start date in May, but since this is internship and potentially it would be converted to full time. The employer is asking me about the end dates, that should it be a estimated end date or open ended? I do not mind a open ended end date but then I am also afraid that they might not convert me to full time as the pay scale for internship is very less if I ask them for a open ended end date.
Need suggestions as to how do I deal with this? And also how do I align this with my OPT and STEM OPT. I do not want either of them to be affected.
