The Times Top 100 Graduate Employers

The Times Top 100 Graduate Employers has been produced annually by High Fliers Research since 1997, celebrating Britain’s most sought-after and successful graduate employers. The latest rankings are based on face-to-face interviews with 17,851 final year students, who graduated from the UK's leading universities during the summer of 2011. Finalists were asked the open-ended question – “Which employer do you think offers the best opportunities for graduates?”.

Over 60,000 copies of the The Times Top 100 Graduate Employers book are available free to student & graduate job hunters via university careers services, or to order a copy of the 2011-2012 edition visit www.Top100GraduateEmployers.com.
