Abstract

This article aims at describing the interest of researchers in analysing students' skills, as an important factor for increasing employability, within the context of pursuing internships. Specifically, we aim at analysing by bibliometric methods the characteristics of the articles that are at the intersection of three essential underlying economic concepts - internships, competences/ skills/ abilities, employability – published in the last 10 years. The objective of the research is to outline: the dynamics of the number of studies, during a decade, in the time period 2010-2020; territorial distribution of these studies; distribution of the studies according to the research area; the relevance of the studies, as assessed by the number of citations and the links between the keywords mentioned in these studies. Thus, the present article contributes to the scientific literature in the field of management by analysing the association between skills, internship and employability in an indirect manner: using bibliometric analysis. There is a significant increase in the number of documents published after 2017, a distribution focused on geographical areas and fields of study, as well as an exponential increase in the number of citations, which emphasizes the high relevance of the topic analysed.
