Companies like Johnson & Johnson, Intel, and Starbucks have painted themselves in shades of green to boost their recruiting and leverage their environmental pedigree to attract talent.

These companies also ranked in the Top 10 on Newsweek‘s 2009 Green Rankings List. This list identifies their exclusive environmental ranking of America’s 500 largest corporations.

Whether you are a small or large recruiting firm, I think it is equally important to show your clients and candidates your green credentials.
