$35,600 Fee Tops This Week’s TE Splits

Congratulations are in order for recruiters Teresa Pernini of Pernini Legal, LLC and Brent Barth of bizjobz, LLC. That’s because Teresa and Brent recently placed a Senior Underwriting Counsel Attorney to earn a split placement fee of $35,600 at 20%.

And, as you can see by the title of this article in The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog, that fee is the largest split placement fee of the week in TE Network!

But wait, there’s more. That’s because Mark Jensen of Upswing Talent Acquisition made his first split placement as a member of TE Network. Mark placed a Server Engineer with Veronica Snyder of Career Professionals, Inc. to generate a placement fee of $23,750.

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

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

Please note that the placements listed below reflect deals finalized in TE Network for the period from August 10 through August 23, 2026.

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

Once again, congratulations to everybody below for the split placements they made in TE Network!
