Top 50 Employers of HBCU Students & Graduates (2011)



HBCU CONNECT – Top 50 Employers of HBCU Students & Graduates

Context - Why a Top 50 List?

By recognizing a list of companies that we know for a fact are reaching out with specific efforts to hire HBCU students and alumni, we do two very important things:

1. Notify students, alumni and college faculty about companies we feel they should pay special attention to when it comes to job interviews or employment decisions. As a top recruit, you want to know that the company you are going to work for is looking to hire more professionals like yourself.

2. Congratulate and encourage these companies to continue to recruit from the HBCU talent pool. If our organization does not recognize these companies, who will?

How do we get listed?

1. At a minimum we need to be aware of your efforts. Contact Us

2. Send out press releases about your HBCU initiatives and recruitment activities. You can send them directly to us by emailing ermoss@ or we also recommend as we get all of their press releases for consideration.

3. While we cannot guarantee that you'll be listed next year for allowing us to help you set up a strong HBCU strategy, you can use our services to reach HBCU students and graduates, and we do review 100% of our active and non-active clients when putting together our Top 50 list.

4. Complete the list of questions below and send us any supporting documentation on your efforts and results to be considered.
