It doesn't matter how long ago you did the internship. What matters is that you did one. And that looks great. In fact, I do not include the dates that I have worked at certain places on my resume. If the company wants that information, I will give it to them. Usually, on an official application, they will ask for that information. I do not put my manager's name and I definitely do not put how much I was paid. I feel that no matter how much you were paid, it will work against you by putting it on your resume. If you were paid $5.15 at the local McDonald's, the employer might think, "Oh, well, I may have paid her $7 per hour but looks like she's willing to work for less." If you put that you had been paid $15 an hour at an internship, the employer may think, "Wow, $15 an hour, I can't affod that. I'm sure that's how much she'll want here. I guess I can't hire her."
