Earlier this month, Universum’s 2018 study of U.S. business students’ top employers was revealed. Now, we look at the 2018 Universum survey of top global employers for business students. And the results are quite interesting.
2018 Universum Survey of Top Global Employers for Business Students
For its 2018 global survey, Universum surveyed 111,000 business students
“in the world’s 12 largest economies. For this report, the study took place during September 2017 to April 2018. And students addressed these topics. (a) Which employer characteristics are most influential as they weigh future employment? And (b), Which employer brands do they admire most. 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. Universum’s 2018 World’s Most Attractive Employer report represents its tenth year.”
Key Findings:
“Work-life balance a more immediate focus.”
“Students in search of firms with innovation and purpose-driven impact.”
“Importance of work environment.”
“Gen Z students confident in their future success.”
“Young talent prefers to be built than bought. Thus, this emerging generation puts a significant focus on professional training and development. And development and future earning capacity suggest that employers favoring a ‘build’ vs. ‘buy’ talent strategy attract student talent.”
