Implication

Descriptive analysis reveals differing perceptions of employability skills among 65 interns and 15 employers, suggesting a disconnect in expectations.

Key Points

Employers perceive a skills gap in student interns, particularly in communication and analytical abilities, indicating a need for curriculum revisions.
Both employers and students acknowledge the importance of basic skills, yet employers rate them significantly higher, emphasizing a disconnect.
Descriptive-quantitative analysis used survey questionnaires to gather data from 65 student interns and 15 host training establishment supervisors.
These findings suggest stronger collaboration between educational institutions and employers could better align student skills with job market demands.
