Any experience gained as an internee lets you and the employer to evaluate each other before you sign up for a permenant role. In coutries like the UK a summer internship at most of the Big4's are a way to get your foot in. Firms usually offer contracts to successful internees.
In Pakistan most firms would sign you up for an internship before they offer you a contracted 'articleship'.
Look at it this way an internship provides the internee a window into the career he or she intends to get into. So that you have a good feel of how the whole environment works.
