In the last year, more and more companies have started offering their employees cash to pay off student loans as part of benefits packages. And those that need it most — college students with tons of debt and little-to-no income — want to work at those places. 

Over 60 percent of 2,500 new graduates surveyed by Indeed, a job search site, said they are looking to work somewhere that will put some money toward their student debts. The survey, released Thursday, also found that a quarter of respondents say it's a "top priority" to land a job that will help pay back some of their loans. Another survey from a few months ago found that a third of millennials expect their employer to pay back some of their loans. 

"As student loans loom large on the conscience of seniors, it's top of mind," said Paul D'Arcy, senior vice president at Indeed. "They have big loans and when getting a job, it's a natural link."
