% of MBAs who want to work there*: 5.13%
Headquarters: Atlanta, GA
Type of company: Consumer-packaged goods
The soft drink maker rose in popularity this year among new MBAs looking for jobs, moving up to no. 19 on Universum's rankings from no. 25 last year.

Coca-Cola prefers the older, more experienced business manager who can, among other things, import and export good ideas and develop and inspire others.
