GRADUAN BRANDS AWARDS 2016

The answer? According to the GRADUAN® Brand Awards 2016, it’s having a positive career path where there is room for growth and development for better skill and knowledge!

It’s not to say that salary doesn’t make a difference whether a person stays or not (in case you’re wondering, it’s #3 in the list after passion for the job) but seems like you guys are more interested in whether a company is able to support and give you what’s necessary to do better.

The GRADUAN® Brand Awards is an annual survey conducted by Putra Business School to learn more about employee behaviour and preferences. Info is collected during GRADUAN® ASPIRE career and Postgraduate Fair.
