About this ranking
This is the first measurement of this ranking, so there is no earlier order to compare it with yet.
What separates the top five from the rest is the hiring process and onboarding: AI recommends the leaders for these far more often than the employers below them. The gap is smallest on leadership, where the rest of the list keeps closer to the leaders.
Across the 23 countries the index covers for biotechnology, the leader here has the 7th highest score. Elsewhere the lead changes hands: in Switzerland, AI recommends Roche first.
More than half of the 65 employers score 5.1 or less, while a place in the top ten takes a score of 33.3. The leader's 89.7 shows how far ahead the most recommended employers sit.
Most lists of the best biotechnology companies to work for come from employee surveys or awards. This one tracks what AI tells job seekers, because many candidates now ask AI where to work before they open a careers page.
