The Network’s Virtual Core Group Schedule for the Month of July
The bottom line is that you want to make split placements as a Preferred Member recruiter in the Top Echelon Network of job placement recruiters. But what’s the bottom line on THAT?
Preferred Member recruiters who participate in Virtual Core Group meetings give themselves more of a chance to make split placements than if they weren’t part of a VCG. And that’s why we hold these meetings—because they work and they result in split placements.
Virtual Core Group meetings are regularly scheduled conference calls for recruiters who work in the same industry or niche. During these calls, the recruiters share information about the activity that they’re seeing, bounce ideas off one another, and share hot job orders and candidates. It’s the presenting and sharing of hot jobs and hot candidates that can provide the real value, since this is what most often results in split placements between recruiters.
Below is the Virtual Core Group meeting schedule in Top Echelon Network for the month of July. Yours truly will conduct each of these conference calls, and they’ll take place on the dates and times indicated. If you’d like to attend any of the VCG meetings outlined below, call or email me and I’ll set you up with the appropriate conference call information.
| Date | Core Group/Time | Core Group/Time | Core Group/Time |
| Thursday, July 7 | Manufacturing & Engineering noon to 1 p.m. |
Accounting & Finance 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. |
Biotech 3 to 4 p.m. |
| Wednesday, July 13 | Insurance noon to 1 p.m. |
Software Sales 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. |
Open for New Group 3 to 4 p.m |
| Thursday, July 14 | Information Technology noon to 1:30 p.m |
Supply Chain 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. |
Aerospace and DoD 3 to 4 p.m. |
Here are two things to keep in mind about the VCG meeting schedule for July:
- There are NO VCG conference calls scheduled for the last two weeks in July. The last day of conference calls for the month is Thursday, July 14, which also happens to be “Bastille Day.” I have no idea what that has to do with Virtual Core Group meetings in Top Echelon Network, but I thought you’d like to know, nonetheless.
- As you can see above, there’s an open space for a new Virtual Core Group. Actually, there’s always an open space, because we’re always looking to form a new group for recruiters in a certain industry or niche. If you think you’d like to start one, I encourage you to contact me so we can discuss it.
I hope that you can attend one of the VCG conference calls this month, and if you’d made a split placement because of a Virtual Core Group meeting, let me know. We’ll profile you (and your placement) in a future post in The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog.
