Universum index highlights companies identified by business students as ideal employers.
KPMG, the global network of professional firms providing audit, tax and advisory services, has been ranked second on Universum’s 2010 index of “The World’s Most Attractive Employers.” The rankings are based on the opinions of nearly 130,000 students from top academic institutions in the world’s 12 leading economies – the United States, China, Japan, Germany, France, UK, Italy, Brazil, Spain, Canada, Russia and India.
Universum, a global talent consultant, develops its global index of the top 50 most attractive employers by asking students pursuing business and engineering degrees to identify “ideal” employers – KPMG ranked second on the index of most attractive employers for business students for 2010, moving up six places from its eighth place ranking in the 2009 index.
“We are honored that so many students worldwide see KPMG as an ideal place to begin and build their careers,” said Jan Žůrek, Managing Partner at KPMG in the Czech Republic. “I think it shows the commitment KPMG has to enabling our people to develop the skills and values that are essential for serving our clients.”
"To secure talent from an increasingly demanding young generation, employers must develop strong employer brands,” said Michal Kalinowski, Universum’s CEO. “Based on the results of our survey, KPMG member firms have managed to do just that."
KPMG member firms have recruited approximately 15,000 graduates globally over the past year. KPMG in the Czech Republic recruited 56 graduates this August.
