The nomination period for the 2023 Best Places to Work program ran from September 15 – November 10, 2022. Nominations are now closed.

While the 2023 nomination period is now closed, here’s was the eligibility criteria. The Best Places to Work program does not have a standard nomination form. To be considered, companies must submit information about their company through its Builtin.com Company Profile. You can find the seven things a company must submit under the “How To Be Considered” section of this webpage. 

Note: For the 2023 program, all information must be submitted through a company’s BuiltIn.com Company Profile, not a local market profile. We will not be accepting submissions from any Built In market sites this year, only through builtin.com.  

Nominations are now closed but during the nomination period, companies are able to check if all of the steps have been completed to be considered for our 2023 Best Places to Work program or what steps are still needing to be done to be considered. 


Here’s how to check your eligibility status:

●   Navigate to Edit Company Profile Webpage.

If you are already an admin on your BuiltIn.com Company Profile, log-in and click Edit Company Profile under your company’s logo in the top right hand corner of the page. If you are not able to edit your Company Profile, email [email protected] and we will give you access to do so.

●   Click on Best Places to Work Eligibility. You’ll find this option on the left-hand side of the Edit Company Profile page. Once there, you’ll see which steps still need to be completed in order to be considered for the 2023 Best Places to Work Program.

We highly recommend searching for your company first on BuiltIn.com prior to building a new Company Profile. There is a chance a past colleague has already built one for you. 


If you do not see your company in your search on BuiltIn.com, we’ve created this handy guide to help you build one. Click here to get the instructions.

Companies who have some employees working from an office and some working remotely can still participate in our Best Places to Work program. We do not have an award that companies can nominate themselves for that recognizes hybrid employers, however, they can nominate themselves for any of our location-based awards.
