Tragically, having only the list of top employers (as percieved by MBA students) for a contrarian only provides short candidates, in which case:

A lot of those names have been near the top of such lists for a considerable time.

Good point, Brent. We'd be better off with the bottom end of the list, or at least with the names of those companies that have fallen off the list.
