IT students are interested in landing a job at Google, according to Universum's report of the World's Most Attractive Employers.Michael Short/Getty Images
Employer branding agency Universum just published its annual report of the World's Most Attractive Employers. Among other findings, this report highlights the different kinds of companies students around the world are interested in.
Universum surveyed over 26,000 IT students in 10 of the world's largest economies, asking them to name their five ideal employers to work for. The survey was conducted from September 2020 to May 2021. Universum notes that the survey results are weighted by GDP.
"To be considered, companies must rank in the top 90% among the most attractive employers," Universum added.
Universum split engineering and IT into two different rankings this year, giving employers a better sense of just where students in these two different field of studies wish to work. Even with this split, students across both fields of study are really interested in Google, ranking as the most attractive company in both rankings for 2021.
Students were not only asked about the companies they want to work for but what they look for in a future place of work. Like business and engineering students, IT students surveyed said that high future earnings is the number one ideal characteristic in an ideal future employer. Followed right behind that though is professional training and development.
The above ranking and industry categories were shared with Insider from Universum. More about the just released 13th annual World's Most Attractive Employers report can be found on Universum here.
