Regarding 2, most startups don't have the same resources as larger companies and may not be able to pay their CS interns as competitively. So then the question I guess is, how do startups snag awesome CS interns when they're being paid more at other places?

Seems like the main leverage you could have over those companies as a local startup is not requiring your interns to move to SF/NYC/Boston for the summer, in the case where that's not something they want to do for whatever reason.

That doesn't help if your startup is in SF/NYC/Boston, though. :)

make the work interesting? Giving a one-off project that goes no-where is not interesting.
