Google ranked number one in the 2022 ranking for computer science students.
Universum, an employer branding specialist, published its annual ranking of the employers that US students most want to land a job at. For the 2022 list for computer science students, the highest share named Google as an ideal employer they want to work for.
That put the tech giant as number one in the list for computer science students, followed by tech giants Apple and Microsoft. These three companies made up the top three last year as well for the computer science student ranking. Google not only ranked number one for the computer science student list this year, but was also number one in this year’s US list for business students.
To create this ranking, Universum asked students to choose the five employers they “most want to work for.” The results come from a Universum student survey conducted from October 2021 to April 2022.
