JobStreet country manager Chook Yuh Yng explained that there were two parts to the JobStreet.com’s People’s Choice Award 2016 survey that was conducted online last December; in the first, respondents were given an open-ended question on which firm they felt employees preferred, while in the second part, they were asked to state what job seekers look for when seeking employment.

According to Chook, “benefits and incentives” topped the list in the second part of the survey that interviewed a total 7,958 respondents from across different age groups, genders and educational levels.

“The second part of survey found that across all position levels, ranging from directors and CEOs to fresh graduates and unemployed, found ‘benefits and incentives’ as the number one pull factor that attracted them to a company with 85 per cent of the respondents polling this as the main factor,” she said.

A total of 77 per cent suggested “salary” as another attractive factor, while 71 per cent voted for “learning and development” and 66 per cent said the firm’s reputation was important.

“We are indeed honoured to receive this award as this is a recognition that further propels our brand as Malaysia’s preferred employer,” Petronas senior vice president of Group Human Resource Management Datuk Raiha Azni Rahman said today in response to the survey results.

Other companies that made it to the top ten list are Sime Darby, Maybank, AirAsia, Nestle, Intel, Tenaga Nasional Bhd and Public Bank.
