One of the questions asked respondents for the five ideal employers that they most wanted to work for. The employer-branding firm then ranked companies and organizations by finding which had the highest shares of students in various majors and fields of study naming them as one of their ideal employers.
For the nearly 14,000 business and commerce students surveyed, Google ranked at the top, as it did last year, with the highest share of students considering the tech giant as one of their ideal employers. Sports-media company ESPN made the ranking for the first time this year.
