5. London
The host of this summers Olympic Games comes in at No. 5. The city boasts a government that is transparent, non-confrontational and deals with employment issues fairly. Employers there are less likely to be surprised by changes in government policies on employment, health care and retirement; as a result, employers have fewer issues finding and retaining educated and experienced talent. London also ranks high for its education system and world-class talent development infrastructure.
