5 Reasons MJ Recruiters is the ‘Perfect Split Placement Agency’

During the past 27 years, there have been a lot of recruiters who have made a lot of placements in Top Echelon Network.  We’ve labeled some of those recruiters “model Network recruiters” because of their commitment and accomplishments.

However, have we ever called a Network agency “the perfect split placement agency”?

Not until now.  MJ Recruiters, LLC in Tiffin, Ohio, joined Top Echelon Network nearly a decade ago, and since that time, the firm has done absolutely everything possible to make split placements a part of their business model.

Not only that, but the recruiters of MJ Recruiters have also done all of those things very well.  The result has been 113 Network placements during the past 10 years.

MJ Recruiters has two partners—Maria Hemminger and Joanna Spaun.  They form the backbone of the agency and are the catalyst behind the success of MJ Recruiters, both inside and outside of the Network.

Below are five reasons why MJ Recruiters is the “perfect split placement agency”:

1. Its recruiters do whatever it takes to fill their client’s job order with the best candidate as quickly as possible, and if that means a split placement, they’re all for it.  They’re not just “open to making splits.”  They actively look for ways to make them happen (i.e., proactive), even though split placements do NOT comprise the majority of their overall placements.

2. Its recruiters adhere to The Four Pillars of Top Echelon Network—Quality, Communication, Trust, and Active Participation.

3. It has a well-developed and fine-tuned process that includes not just Hemminger and Spaun, but also recruitment coordinator Lisa Reinbolt and two college researchers.

4. Hemminger and Spaun complement one another extremely well, each excelling at different parts of the placement process, regardless of whether it’s a split or a non-split situation.  Their combined talents, abilities, and instincts ensure that if a placement can be made, it will be made.

5. Hemminger and Spaun regularly attend Top Echelon networking events like our annual National Convention and Fall Conference, not to mention Regional Core Group meetings.  In fact, they’ve only missed one National Convention in 10 years.  Now THAT is a commitment.

Are there other “perfect split placement agencies” in Top Echelon Network?  Quite possibly, but MJ Recruiters has done an excellent job of setting the standard against which those firms are measured.
