Revealing The 25 Most Sought-After Employers Globally

We are excited to announce the 2017 Global LinkedIn Top Companies -- a list of the most sought-after employers across the world.

Congratulations to the winners for building out employer brands that attract talent and company cultures that engage and motivate employees.

The rankings are based on LinkedIn data, analyzing billions of interactions between members and companies and focus on three particular pillars: interest in a company's jobs, interest in a company's brand and employees, and employee retention. You can learn more about our methodology here.

Here are the 25 companies that made the global list (or you can see the winners in US, Australia, Brazil, France, Germany, India and the UK):
