methodology appendix 2. © randstad 2018 | employer brand research 2018, country report uk. | 39
methodology why smart sampling? In the past, companies were evaluated by 140 to 1400 respondents. example Having analysed the data and error margins, it was concluded that a 140 respondents have evaluated company X. Of these 140, 50% find the large sample was not necessary when reliable data can also be company nice to work for. Taking the error margin at n=140/50% into obtained with a smaller sample size. Therefore, since REBR 2017 account, the real answer lies between 42% and 58%. companies are evaluated between 140 and 400 respondents. The actual number of evaluations per company depends on the 400 respondents have evaluated company Y and of these 400, 50% finds awareness of the company. the company nice to work for. Taking the error margin at n=400/50% into account, the real answer lies between 45% and 55%. The error margin is determined by the % of respondents giving a certain answer and the sample size to which the question has 1200 respondents have evaluated company Z and of these 1200, 50% been asked. The highest error margin occurs when 50% of the finds the company nice to work for. Taking into account the error margin respondents give a certain answer. The error margin is lower at n=1200/50%, the real answer lies between 47% and 53%. when 30% (or 70%) of the respondents give a certain answer. Therefore, the difference in error margin is very small between n=1200 and n=400 evaluations per company (5% margin vs 3% margin at the most). As such it can be concluded that maximum 400 evaluations per company are sufficient in order to determine a reliable attractiveness per company. In practice, this means that every company with an awareness over 35% will have max 400 respondents evaluating the company. Companies with an awareness below 35% will be evaluated by 140 to 400 people (depending on awareness). © randstad 2018 | employer brand research 2018, country report uk. | 40
