Ask HN: What's the best welcome you've ever had when you first started your job?

Since we're in the process of hiring our first employees, we want to give them the best welcome possible to our current team of 3.

What's the best way you've ever been welcomed at a new job? Think about activities, swag you've received, the general process or anything else.

I'm curious what the best stories are and hope to incorporate some elements into our own company culture!
