Only one talent solutions firm made Fortune® World’s Most Admired Companies™ list for 2023 — and that company is Robert Half

Robert Half is among a select group to be honored as a Fortune® Most Admired Company™ for 26 consecutive years — and we are the only organization in our industry to achieve this distinction.

The annual list is compiled from a survey of approximately 15,000 senior executives, directors and analysts who rated organizations in their own industry on nine criteria — from ability to attract talent to social responsibility — to determine the best-regarded companies. Those considered include the 1,000 largest U.S. companies, ranked by revenue, and non-U.S. companies in Fortune’s Global 500 database with revenues of $10 billion or more.

“Achieving this recognition for more than a quarter of a century is a testament to our purpose, our organizational culture and, most importantly, our employees,” said M. Keith Waddell, president and chief executive officer of Robert Half. “Our people across the globe, who embrace Robert Half’s values of integrity, inclusion, innovation and a commitment to success every day, make this honor possible year after year.”

More recent recognition from Fortune

In September 2022, Fortune named Robert Half to the highly competitive Best Workplaces for Women™ list. Protiviti, our global internal audit and consulting subsidiary, is also included on the list.

The annual list is based on a survey of more than 640,000 women who work for Great Place to Work-Certified™ companies. Employees shared feedback about their organization’s culture, including issues of equal representation, career growth, fairness, trust and camaraderie.

In addition to survey responses, organizational demographics were considered. At Robert Half and Protiviti, women comprise 55% of the global workforce.”

Also, in September 2022, Robert Half learned that Fortune had named our company to the Best Workplaces in Consulting & Professional Services™ list for the second consecutive year. (Protiviti is included on that list as well.)

This annual ranking was based on an analysis of survey responses from more than 104,000 employees from Great Place to Work-Certified™ companies in the consulting and professional services industry. In the 2022 Great Place to Work® survey, 94% of employees at Robert Half said our company is a great place to work, compared to just 57% at the typical U.S.-based company.
