You’ve been firing out job applications left and right, and now companies are asking you to come in and interview. Nervous?

What if you and the recruiter don’t click? What if you flub the handshake? Or don’t know how to answer a question?

Don’t worry, these kinds of things happen to the best of us—trust us, we’ve been there, too. While interviewing can be pretty scary (check out these helpful tips to soothe your interview jitters!), some companies make the process a whole lot more enjoyable for the candidate.

Recently, Talent Board, a non-profit organization focused on the evaluation and promotion of a quality job candidate experience, revealed the winners of their 2017 North American Candidate Experience (CandE) Awards. The awards were sponsored by Monster and analyzed the thoughts and experiences of more than 180,000 job candidates.

The winners, which run the gamut from airlines to health care, made the grade based on the likelihood that job candidates would reapply to the organization or even refer other job seekers to the organization. After an interview at one of these top-rated companies, you’re sure to leave with a smile on your face and some pep in your step.
