L'Oreal took the 5th place in the Universum 2022 global ranking of business students’ favorite companies for the second year in a row

CLICHY , November 3, 2022 (press release) –

For the second year in a row, L'Oréal took the 5th place in the Universum global ranking of business students’ favorite companies, thereby positioning the Group as the n°1 European company.

Business students recognise L’Oréal for its people-centric culture that encourages professional and personal growth through job mobility and early responsibility, a diverse and inclusive work environment and a strong entrepreneurial spirit. They also singled out the Group for its social and environmental commitments and its ability to meet the expectations of young people seeking purpose in the face of the current global challenges.

The 2022 ranking reflects the Group's historical commitment to young people, further strengthened by L'Oréal for Youth, our global youth employment programme launched in 2021. This puts us on track to create 25 000 professional opportunities for under-30s in 2022.

"We are very honored to be ranked so highly in Universum. Our people-driven culture, which has always been our driving force, resonates with the aspirations of young people who want to grow and have a voice in an inclusive and entrepreneurial environment, while having an impact on society and the planet. At L'Oréal, everyone contributes to a common and unique experience, that of creating beauty that moves the world”, says Michael Kienle, Global Vice-President Talent Acquisition, L’Oréal Group.

Universum collected data from 89,189 students who were asked about 40 criteria for choosing their future employer. It was carried out in 9 countries (United States, Canada, China, India, Brazil, Germany, United Kingdom, France, and Italy) between October 2021 and May 2022.
