Consilient Named One of Canada's Top 100 Employers for 2006Toronto - October 18, 2005 - Consilient Technologies, a St. John's-based software developer, was named one of Canada's Top 100 Employers in the soon to be released 2006 edition of the book and in the October 18 issue of Maclean's magazine. The Top 100 list singles out top employers across the country with exemplary workplace environments. The annual competition profiles the companies and organizations that are the leaders in their fields in attracting and retaining high quality employees. The top 100 winners were selected from an initial pool of over 7500 applicants. Employers were asked to complete an extensive application process that included a detailed review of their operations and HR practices. The publisher, Mediacorp looked for the most interesting and novel things employers were doing, so they could report on best practices in each field. "We are thrilled that Consilient is recognized as one of the best 100 places to work in Canada," said Trevor Adey, Consilient CEO. "There's a spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship that runs through Consilient and I think this is what makes it a dynamic workplace - we're incredibly proud of this accomplishment," Adey added. The publisher, Mediacorp Canada, was assisted by a blue-chip panel of academics which was chaired by Professor Emeritus Daniel Ondrack of the Rotman School at the University of Toronto. "This year marks a turning point in the competition," says Anthony Meehan, president of Mediacorp Canada Inc., publisher of the book Canada's Top 100 Employers. "We're now seeing exceptional workplace practices becoming increasingly widespread. More employers are asking, ?How do we improve our workplace practices to attract and keep the talented employees we need to stay in business?'", Meehan added.
