Case in Point
Adobe Systems Incorporated is on the leading edge of innovation in the business, creative and mobile software solutions industry and is famous for launching business staples such as the PDF file format and the Adobe Creative Suite. The company finds itself in a highly competitive talent market with companies such as Google and Apple.
Adobe is well-known for aggressively recruiting top talent from around the world to complete development of its important products. Adobe presents its job candidates with branded gifts at various stages of the recruitment process to represent their commitment and excitement. In 2008, candidates who accepted jobs with Adobe received a high-end branded fleece blanket, recycled notebook and eco-friendly pen as a part of their welcome basket. Gifts like the one shown here from Adobe and other buzz-worthy branded gifts have been made so popular by employees and fans that entire websites have emerged dedicated to their praise!
