I think it's a semantics issue. Volunteering to me implies things like community engagement, religious organization involvement, etc. It also implies...being voluntary. But businesses don't offer volunteer opportunities; they offer internships and these are usually considered a prerequisite for a job despite requiring the same amount of work as a job (but for no pay). Volunteering isn't necessary to break into an industry, but internships can be.
