Kenexa, a provider of software for retention and talent management, has been declared by Forbes as one of the twenty-five fastest growing tech companies in the U.S.
The company came in tenth place. Included in the rankings were companies like Genentech, Salesforce, and Apple. No surprise here that many of these companies also often surface on ‘best places to work’ lists.
Kenexa’s Chief Executive Officer, Rudy Karsan, said, “Kenexa is honored to be recognized by Forbes and to take its place among noteworthy tech companies such as Google and Apple. We’re focused on strong business fundamentals: developing products that deliver value to our customers and creating a world-class company that attracts high-performing employees. We’re particularly gratified to be ranked tenth for our first year on this prestigious listing.”
To make the list, companies must have latest 12-month revenues of $25 million or more, annualized sales gains of at least 10% over the past five years and a profit over the past 12 months. In addition, Forbes requires a Thomson IBES long-term consensus profit-growth forecast of at least 10%, annualized. They also exclude companies with significant legal problems or with possible accounting or corporate governance issues, based on scoring data from Audit Integrity of Los Angeles.
