To
receive accolades as a leading company,
whether the recognition is as a top business
to work for or as a firm that has generated
record-breaking sales, is an honor for any
organization. But with so many surveys published,
how does one determine what business is
really the best? Look no further! BestJobsUSA.com
has compiled its own unique list titled
"Employers of Choice 500" to answer
that very question.
Through
the efforts of our staff, BestJobsUSA.com's
exclusive one-of-a-kind ranking examined
more than 10,000 companies featured in nearly
30 surveys. We looked at businesses not
only through the eyes of prospective employees,
but based on how other organizations might
see their corporate colleagues. Our researchers
scrutinized and questioned all aspects of
what makes a business an employer of choice.
For instance, we investigated the types
of benefits companies had, i.e. family-friendly,
family leave and healthcare. We wanted to
know how important in-house training was
to these businesses. How did organizations
rate in terms of diversity throughout all
levels of their companies? How was the business
growing (i.e. sales)? Was an organization
recognized as being innovative in technology?
Was a business acknowledged by its respective
trade journals?
Any
successful corporation will say that it's
the employees that make the company. But
whether as an employer or an employee, it's
nice to be recognized for one's accomplishments.
BestJobsUSA.com congratulates and applauds
all those organizations that have made the
list.
