I’ve been reviewing the Best Companies across a series of posts (and we are only through 30% of those companies), but what about the largest companies? Many people feel better about being in a large organization, but who are they and are they hiring? Let’s cover a few (excluding any that have been covered in previous posts).
- Randstad Holding - Randstad is one of the largest temporary and contract staffing companies in the world. They are an international company and emply several hundred thousand people a year via their temp and contract staffing divisions. Since hiring is what they do for a living, their career site is robust with Job Search, Locations, Career Tools and about Randstad. Job search allows registration and a search engine as well as “Top Jobs”. Clicking Jobs (mid right side of page) provides two choices, job search for other companies or working at Randstad.
- Kroger - Kroger is a retailer with over 2,400 supermarkets and department stores in the United States. Their career site has a wide range of search opportunities - Hourly Store, Manufacturing, Shared Services and Distribution Center. You can also review company background and register from this page. Clicking on Opportunities provides an advanced search function. A simple search returned 146 job opportunities across the United States.
- Coca-Cola - I think we all know what Coca-Cola does, but just in case, they are a manufacturer, distributor and marketer of nonalcoholic beverage concentrates. Their careers page offers information on the company with an inter-active map that allows you to select your country for job search. The North America link has job search as well as Internships. Clicking on search for North America links to an advanced search page with the ability to register on the site. There were 91 job opportunities in North America (with a simple search).
- Oracle - Employs more than 68,000 in over 100 countries around the world and is a software developer. Their career site has a full range of company information, special sites for college recruiting and professional development. Clicking on Open Positions at Oracle where you can register, job search, create a profile and look for opportunities in other countries. You must select specific criteria to search for jobs.
Good luck in your search.
