...pretty frustrating, as you can imagine," he says. Employers there thus use what's called a keep-warm strategy, in which newly approved hires are plied with informational packets, calls from executives and even small gifts for their parents (Target sends stuffed versions of its mascot, the dog Bull's Eye), before their first day of work.
