Winners of the survey based on individual categories:

  • IT and telecom – Slovak Telekom

  • Media – public broadcaster RTVS

  • Hospitals and health care – pharmacies Dr. Max

  • Retail and service – Lidl Slovenská Republika

  • Manufacturing and industry – Slovnaft

  • Banking, finances and insurance – Slovenská Sporiteľna bank

  • Shared service centres – Henkel Slovensko

“Collective and people were among the top reasons that the public perceives an employer as attractive, for the first time ever,” said Ivana Molnárová, executive director of Profesia.sk, as cited in the press release. “Compared with the previous year this factor has replaced work certainty and the long-term tradition of the company. It seems that today, when job applicants have a greater choice of possible jobs, they care more about the collective in which they will work and what the atmosphere is like in the work place.”
