“Recruiting and developing the best engineers is what’s most important to ÅF; nothing has a higher priority for us,” says Viktor Svensson, head of sales and marketing at ÅF. “That’s why we’re very pleased that, for the second year in a row, we’ve been named Sweden’s second most attractive employer among engineering professionals. It’s a feather in our cap and obligates us to continue to work very hard for the future.”

The survey on Sweden's most attractive employer among engineering professionals was conducted by Universum.

“We are constantly looking ahead and continuously working hard to strengthen ÅF as an employer; wherefore an award like this is very pleasing,” says Greta Mathiesen, project manager for Employer Branding.
