Marine- und Automatisierungstechnik GmbH has been recognised as a „Top SME Employer 2021“ by Yourfirm.de, the leading online job portal for SMEs in German-speaking countries. The aim of the award is to highlight the advantages of medium-sized employers to job seekers and to provide them with guidance in their search for interesting employers in the SME sector.
The special thing about this award is that it is not based on surveys, which often have low participation rates and therefore only a limited data basis. Instead, the access and reading behaviour of users on Yourfirm.de is evaluated on more than 60,000 job advertisements within one year.
Evaluation criteria are
- the average number of users a company reaches per job advert and company profile,
- the percentage of users who actually read through the content, i.e. stay on the page for a correspondingly long time
- as well as the proportion of readers who take an application-related action, e.g. by clicking on „Apply now“ or the company's website link.
Based on these three categories, a „popularity index“ is determined for each employer. The 1,000 top-rated companies receive the „Top Employer in the SME Sector 2021“ seal.
Yourfirm founder and Managing Director Dirk Kümmerle: „The past twelve months have been a great challenge for everyone. But it is precisely in difficult times that you can see who is really good at their job. The companies that continue to recruit and grow during the crisis are strong and attractive employers. For applicants looking for a new challenge, a top employer in the SME sector is certainly an exciting and secure employer. In addition, there are short decision-making processes, fast promotion opportunities, a familiar and appreciative environment and a wide range of tasks that make jobs in the SME sector attractive to applicants anyway.“
The entire MAR team is delighted to receive the award once again and takes it as an incentive to continue working on issues such as the working atmosphere and work-life balance.
