What is the Universum Top 100?

Universum top 100 is a media concept designed to communicate the results from the Universum Students Survey and present the Most Attractive Employers and the Most Interesting Companies to watch to multiple target groups. It’s an excellent Employer Branding tool, distributed together with The New York Times and within the student community.

The Universum Top 100 will discuss 2012 survey findings as well as feature employee testimonials. Distributed as an advertising supplement in The New York Times in October, it will have several target audiences—students, young professionals, current employees, top management, HR, and the business society.

“The New York Times’ audience is a perfect match for Universum's message because of our reach of human resource professionals, opinion leaders and young professionals,” says Kerrie Gillis, Vice President of Advertising Sales at The New York Times.

Our vision for the Universum Top 100 is to spread the word about tomorrow’s winners in the war for talent. The concept of Universum Top 100 is to let readers meet a real person from top organizations through a Q&A interview. Besides providing useful information about the organization, the interviews and accompanying information will discuss what it takes to get hired at the company and what recruiters are looking for in potential recruits. It will also establish a strong and competitive employer brand for participating organizations.
