- Survey collection from Universum, an employer branding agency, suggests business students see Google as a top employer.
- Universum ranked places on a list based on the share of business students who chose an employer as one of their ideal places to work for.
Google is an attractive employer for business students, according to a new ranking from employer-branding agency Universum.
Thousands of students were asked in a survey to "choose the five employers you most want to work for, your five Ideal Employers." The survey collection for the overall Universum survey, which included the ideal employer question, was from September 2022 to March 2023.
According to the ranking from Universum, about 15% of business students chose Google as an ideal employer from a list of places. Because this tech company had the highest share among business students, it ranked at the top of the list, same as last year. Students could be from any college-grade level, not just those seniors during the survey period who may be looking to get their first full-time job.
JPMorgan Chase, Apple, and Goldman Sachs all had high shares of business students compared to other companies or organizations on the ranking. Apple slipped from No. 2 to No. 3 this year, with about 14% of business students calling the tech company one of their ideal places to work. A higher share of business students chose it as an ideal employer last year, about 16% of business students.
The Coca-Cola Company moved up the most among the top 20, climbing 12 spots to No. 20. Ernst & Young is one place that moved down in the ranks that was among the top 20.
