$30K Fee Leads the Way for This Week’s TE Splits

We have another stack of split placements this week for you, hot off the griddle!

(And yes, you may enjoy them with butter and syrup, if you’d like. Who are we to judge?)

In the meantime, please note that there are 14 splits listed below. In addition, Mark Shemroske of Tri-S Recruiters, Inc. and Haira Omanan of Raymond Search Group placed a Manufacturing Engineering Manager to generate a $30,375 fee at 22.5%.

So congratulations to Mark and Haira for making the largest split fee of the week in TE!

And also a special shout-out to two recruiters who recently made their first split placement in Top Echelon Network. Those recruiters are Chris Harder of Harder Recruiting and Amanda Peterson of RiverLink Staffing.

As a friendly neighborhood reminder, here is the information that we publish with our weekly placements:

  • Names of the split recruiting partners involved (with their profile photos, when available)
  • Job title
  • Overall placement fee (before TE’s 6% brokerage fee, of course)
  • Fee percentage

Please note that the placements listed below reflect deals finalized in Top Echelon Network for the period from April 10 through April 16, 2023.

Remember, if you don’t want information related to your Network placements published in The Pinnacle, please send an email to marketing@topechelon.com to that effect.

Congratulations to everybody below for the split placements they made in Top Echelon Network!
