Global Insights into How Students View Companies

We’re delighted to have been named as one of the world’s most attractive employers in the annual Universum report. Our early talent programmes are important in building a pipeline of future leaders. Thank you to all the students who voted for us!

Each year, Universum unveils the list of the World’s Most Attractive Employers (WMAE), delving into what candidates are hoping to see from a workplace. In order to be considered, a company must rank in the top 90% of employers within at least six of the 12 largest economies in the world, weighted by GDP.

The WMAE are the forefront of emerging employer branding trends and tactics, but are also at the root of evolutionary adjustments. By following these attractive employers, we can analyze the desires of talent and how those desires align with the perception of the companies themselves. Understanding the spoken and unspoken motivations of candidates can help organizations of any size better prepare for talent attraction and acquisition.

“Sometimes called Generation Impact, today’s students want to make a difference and might perceive they cannot make as much of an impact in larger organizations like the Fortune 500s.Claudia Tattanelli
