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 job security and leadership: AI recommends the leaders for these far more often than the employers below them. The gap is smallest on innovation, where the rest of the list keeps closer to the leaders.
Across the 23 countries the index covers for insurance, the leader here has the 18th highest score. Elsewhere the lead changes hands: in Canada, AI recommends Manulife first.
More than half of the 41 employers score 10.3 or less, while a place in the top ten takes a score of 25.6. The leader's 79.5 shows how far ahead the most recommended employers sit.
Most lists of the best insurance 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.

Rankings refresh with each new round of AI answers. Each page shows the date its data was updated, and the arrows next to each score show how an employer has moved since the previous measurement.
Do I need to be a PerceptionX customer to appear in the index?
No. Any employer AI recommends often enough appears automatically. Customers get the full picture behind their Visibility score and well beyond it: how positively AI describes them (Sentiment), the themes it links them with, the sources it relies on, custom reports by country and role, and clear steps to improve how candidates see them.
