A lot of people know UNC Greensboro is a great place to work. Now, we’re getting national recognition.

UNCG is ranked No. 31 among the Best In-State Employers of 2021 in a Forbes Magazine listing.

This prestigious award is presented by Forbes and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider.

Forbes identified America’s Best-In-State Employers of 2021 in an independent survey based on a vast sample of approximately 80,000 Americans working for companies with more than 500 employees in the USA. Across 25 industry sectors, 1,329 employer brands were ranked among the top employers.

The evaluation was based on direct and indirect recommendations from employees who were asked to rate their willingness to recommend their own employers to friends and family. Employees were also asked to evaluate other employers in their respective industry and state that stood out either positively or negatively.

Joining UNCG in the Top 50 of the list are three other UNC System universities: NC State, UNC Chapel Hill, and UNC Charlotte.
