Yup, same. We'll try to vary the work they do so they get a good range of experience, and they'll have a more senior dev assigned to help them whenever they get stuck. We won't put them on high priority projects, but the changes will still be important and will go to production.
The main difference we have between a junior dev and an intern is the expected length of the contract. A junior dev is a FTE, whereas an intern is employed only for 3 months or whatever, though that contract may be extended if we like them.
