About The Customer
Brother International Corporation is a premier provider of home office and business products, home appliances for sewing and crafting enthusiasts, and industrial solutions. With a history spanning over 100 years, Brother has established itself as a global manufacturer with worldwide sales exceeding $6 billion. The company operates its corporate headquarters in Bridgewater, New Jersey, and has fully integrated sales, marketing services, manufacturing, and research and development capabilities in the U.S. Additionally, Brother has facilities in California, Illinois, and Tennessee, as well as subsidiaries in Canada, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Peru, and Mexico. Brother is known for its innovative and diverse product range, which includes printers, fax machines, and other business solutions.
The Challenge
Brother International Corporation faced a significant challenge in effectively communicating its employer brand to potential job seekers. Despite being a well-established company with a diverse range of products and services, many job seekers were either unaware of Brother or only associated the brand with its printers and typewriters. The existing career section on their corporate site was insufficient in showcasing the company's employee value proposition, mission, and unique 'at your side' philosophy. The goal was to reach a broader audience of candidates and educate them about Brother's offerings, ultimately building strong talent pipelines and attracting quality candidates.
The Solution
To address the challenge, Brother International Corporation chose Phenom's AI-powered Talent Experience Management (TXM) platform to revamp their career site. The prerequisites for the solution included a Workday Certified Select Partner, a hyper-personalized career site with intelligent search capabilities, a CMS for easy brand management, and insightful talent analytics. Phenom met all these requirements and provided seamless integration with Brother's Workday Recruiting ATS, ensuring a smooth application experience for candidates. The new career site was designed to engage passive leads, drive applications, and allow Brother to manage content internally without coding knowledge. The site featured engaging content such as employee testimonials, videos, personalized job recommendations, and a seamless application process, all of which contributed to increased traffic, engagement, and conversions.

Darwin Ecosystem: Accelerating discovery and insight through cutting-edge big data and cognitive technologies
Darwin Ecosystem was founded with a unique vision of harnessing chaos theory mathematics to uncover previously hidden connections in unstructured data. The company’s algorithms can look at all the data generated by any source (such as news, RSS feeds and Twitter), and analyze how a specific set of concepts within that data are evolving over time. This is particularly valuable in situations such as business and competitive intelligence, social research, brand monitoring, legal discovery, risk mitigation and even law enforcement. A common problem in these areas is that a regular web search will only turn up the all-time most popular answers to a given question – but what the expert researcher is actually interested in is the moment-tomoment evolution of the data available on that topic. Darwin’s algorithm is computationally intensive, and the sources of data it correlates can be vast. To bring its benefits to a larger commercial audience, Darwin needed to find a way to make it scale.

Delivering modern data protection with cloud scale backup from Cobalt Iron and IBM
Organizations are struggling to modernize their legacy data protection environments in the face of growing demands around new infrastructure, new applications, and budget consolidation. Virtualization and modern application development processes have significantly outgrown legacy backup architectures. In response, infrastructure teams have created multiple backup solution types to handle the varying SLAs (performance, scale, cost) required by their business sponsors. However, the sheer number and variety of solutions in this uncontrolled expansion creates huge amounts of work, threatening to overwhelm the IT team in many organizations. Today, developers may add new applications and virtual server instances by the hundreds per day without accounting for the restrictions of the existing backup infrastructure. They leverage the cloud for immediate compute and storage resources, yet rarely communicate succinctly with corporate IT to ensure that the appropriate data protection services are in place.
