This quantitative study investigated the preparedness of undergraduate business majors for internship and practical training experiences. The analysis examined the relationship of overall employer satisfaction by reviewing the correlation of intern hard and soft skill demonstration with credits completed. Hard skills are the technical abilities necessary to be able to perform the job; whereas, soft skills are the interpersonal abilities needed to function within work groups. Differences in preparedness between gender, traditional and non-traditional student status, and technical and theory-based majors were also investigated. The findings did not show a relationship between credits completed and overall employer satisfaction with hard or soft skills. Furthermore, there were no differences in employer satisfaction based on gender, student status, or major type. Text analysis of employers' comments on the Training Supervisor Evaluation Form and correlation of individual variables was conducted to investigate the lack of relationships. Text analysis confirmed that employers were very satisfied with intern performance, particularly regarding demonstrated work ethic and leadership. A further analysis of student demographics revealed that a majority of students studied completed an internship in the final semester of their programs, and therefore, would be expected to be highly prepared for their intern experience.
