The Ireland Graduate Careers Survey 2007 was based on the opinions of more than 3,000 final year students across all faculties (other than nursing, medicine and veterinary) in seven Irish universities. Students were asked which company offered the best opportunities for graduates and how they rated specific organisations as potential employers. Arthur Cox ranked 14th of the 400 mentioned and was the highest ranking law firm.
