© Universum Communications 2 UNIVERSUM IN THE WORLD ANNUAL RESEARCH CONSULTING PROJECTS

3 Universum is an international organisation, with its headquarters in Stockholm, Sweden and operates in the field of employer branding and talent research. Our purpose is to improve the communications between students, career services and employers. We believe that career choice is one of the most important decisions in a student’s life. We therefore want to provide students with information and support career services in their role. We also believe that companies need to under- stand student expectations, to adjust their offering and working environment to attract potential candidates and meet their resourcing needs. ABOUT US Our role is threefold: 1) we provide students with information on companies, 2) support career services in their role and 3) help companies to develop their employer value.
