$42K Split Paces This Week’s Placements

There is money to be made in TE Network.

And nobody knows that better than the recruiters who have made split placements recently in the Network. And that includes recruiters Christina Boudreaux of Connectly Recruiting and Bob Calamita of Execu-Tech.

That’s because Christina and Bob placed a VP of Finance Operations to earn a recruiting fee of $42,000 at 20%. As you might have guessed, that qualified as the largest split fee of the week in TE Network.

Congratulations are also in order for Charlie Isgette of Marlie Park Group. That’s because Charlie made his first TE split placement as a Network member, placing a Refrigeration Technician with Brad Dodge of iLocatum Recruiting. The pair split a recruiting fee of $17,222 at 18%.

As a friendly neighborhood reminder, here is the information that we publish with our 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 September 29 through October 12, 2025.

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!
