This research apply a judgmental sampling with the sample size of 200 lecturers from a private universities in Tangerang. Structural equation modeling was applied in testing the research hypotheses. The results showed that there is one out of three hypotheses that was not supported. That hypothesis is the relationship between internal marketing and job satisfaction.
