The Times Top 100 Graduate Employers
The Times Top 100 Graduate Employers showcases the country’s outstanding graduate employers to university students & graduates across the UK. Produced as a hard-backed book and digital edition, it celebrated its 25th edition in 2023 and is read by over 250,000 graduate job hunters each year.
Together, the employers featured in The Times Top 100 Graduate Employers offer around 25,000 places each year on the UK’s most prestigious and sought-after graduate programmes, with opportunities available in fifteen different industries and employment sectors.
About the Rankings
The annual rankings are complied by High Fliers Research from on-campus interviews with up to 15,000 final year university students, who are asked ‘Which employer do you think offers the best opportunities for new graduates?’
Since its launch in 1999, just three employers have reached number one in the rankings – Accenture, PwC and the Civil Service. More than 240 graduate employers have now featured within The Times Top 100 Graduate Employers – and thirty-four of these employers have been ranked in all twenty-seven editions.
Showcasing Britain’s Top Graduate Employers
Employers ranked within The Times Top 100 Graduate Employers are featured in two-page entries which have details of their graduate vacancies and work experience programmes, location of roles, starting salaries, minimum entry requirements and application deadlines.
Each entry includes links to the employer’s digital brochure, recruitment website, campus events, social media and video clips, along with a full-page interactive advert – providing invaluable information for graduate job hunters.
