Headquarters: Palo Alto, Calif.
Employees: 13,000



Facebook has had a fairly rough year following its disastrous initial public offering, but that doesn’t mean it’s off the hook. The social networking giant is making some serious money from its mobile ads division and acquiring some of the best app brands in the industry.



What makes facebook so successful is its reach. It has more than 1 billion users across the globe and that is a massive number. This justifies that there is lot of opportunities for young professionals to build a great career for themselves.



Facebook is "always looking to hire top talent, and MBA graduates bring with them valuable business and management skills," says Kristen Meeks, who is in charge of Facebook’s business school recruiting.

Headquarters: Seattle, Wash.
Employees: 47,000
