Apply at Raymond James, get a video iPod
By HELEN HUNTLEY
Published April 24, 2006
Recruiting has gone high-tech at St. Petersburg-based Raymond James Financial Services Inc. The company is handing out video iPods to brokers it considers hot prospects. Those who are affiliated with other brokerages and thinking of jumping ship get one of the flashy toys to take home when they attend a Raymond James-sponsored conference or visit the company's St. Petersburg headquarters.
When the brokers turn on their new iPods, they discover an audio-video presentation on Raymond James Financial Services. (They can download the Red Hot Chili Peppers when they get home.)
Raymond James has handed out 50 of the iPods in the past two months at a cost of about $300 a pop.
