Business students are interested in landing a job at Microsoft, according to Universum's report of the World's Most Attractive Employers.Justin Sullivan/Getty Images
Not only did Google rank as the most attractive employer for business students just in the US this year, but the tech giant placed at the top for business students surveyed around the world.
Universum surveyed over 110,000 business students from 10 of the world's largest economies to learn about what makes an employer attractive to them and what companies they wish to work for.
Students were asked to choose their five ideal future employers. The survey was conducted from September 2020 to May 2021. The results are weighted by the economies' GDP. Universum also wrote that "To be considered, companies must rank in the top 90% among the most attractive employers."
Google not only was named the most attractive employer among business students surveyed, but the tech giant also landed the top spot in the engineering student and IT student rankings.
Business students considering their future employer aren't just thinking about financial companies and accounting firms to land a business job. Companies that made the above list fall into a few different industries, such as tech, consumer goods, and banking.
Not only did business students consider the above companies as highly attractive future employers, but business students also told Universum in the report that the top ideal employer characteristic is high future earnings. Professional training and development followed behind as an ideal attribute in a future employer for business students.
The above ranking and industry categories were shared with Insider from Universum. More about this year's business student ranking, along with the engineering and IT rankings, can be found on Universum here.
