Item Algerian business schools internships effectiveness analysis : case study: EHEC Alger(The School of Higher Commercial Studies, 2018-06) DIABI, Abderaouf; BOUCHA, Nesrine (Directeur de thèse)Internship has been viewed as an effective approach to equip high education institutions students with preliminary job knowledge and experience, thus enhancing their employability in the competitive labor market. Focusing on indentifying and evaluating the effectiveness of internship, this study aims to explore the extent to which the characteristics of student interns and organization practices account for their internship success. Based on literature review and the findings, individual factors (academic preparedness, positive attitude, and self-initiative) and four organizational factors (challenge job, effectiveness of supervision, task clarity, and compensation) were identified as important ingredients of an effective internship. To explore it further, a quantitative research involving 140 student interns was conducted and the results showed that the individual factors played a major role in determining internship effectiveness but effectiveness of supervision and task clarity were also positively associated with the success of the internship program. Implications and examples of practical application are discussed and recommendations are given to student interns and organizations to maximize the effectiveness of internship program.
