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 pay and the hiring process: AI recommends the leaders for these far more often than the employers below them. The gap is smallest on purpose, where the rest of the list keeps closer to the leaders.
Across the 23 countries the index covers for oil and gas, the leader here has the 18th highest score. Shell also leads in the UK and the Netherlands.
Half of the 34 employers score 5.1 or less, while a place in the top ten takes a score of 23.1. The leader's 82.1 shows how far ahead the most recommended employers sit.
Most lists of the best oil and gas 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.
