UCLA Health was the top-ranked health system listed in Forbes annual "America's Best Employers for New Grads" list published May 21.
Forbes partnered with Statista, a market research firm to develop the list, to survey over 100,000 young professionals with less than ten years of work experience who are working for companies with a minimum of 1,000 U.S. employees. The survey asked respondents if they would recommend their employer to others and rate their organization based on working conditions, flexibility, company image, inclusion, compensation, benefits, and advancement opportunities. Survey participants were also asked if they would recommend previous employers or employers they know through either their industry or through friends and family.
Responses were considered from conducted surveys over the last three years. Data was put into a scoring system with a stronger emphasis put on employee recommendations and most recent responses. The 400 organizations with the highest scores are reflected in Forbes' list.
