Most of our respondents expressed clear ideas regarding their preferred industry, but
struggled naming an employer they would like to work for. Respondents expressed a preference for working in an industry, either based on the products offered (e.g. fast moving consumer goods, airline industry) or by preferred task (e.g. accounting, advertising). It appears, at least from our respondents, that the industry in which a company is embedded has a stronger influence on potential employees than the employee based brand equity or company brand.
