The Top Recruiters in TE Network in September

We have new faces and a familiar face at the top of the recruiter standings in TE Network for the month of September.

The familiar face? Brad Dodge of iLocatum Recruiting, who has won yet another Recruiter of the Month Award in the Network.

The new faces? The first one is Derek Hilbert of Kingfisher Recruiting, who made his first two Network splits in September. And those two splits helped him claim the #2 spot in TE Network in September.

The other new face is Mark Skender of DCS Consulting, who finalized his first three TE Network split placements during the month of September. For his efforts, Mark earned fifth place in the recruiter standings for the month.

Here is the information that we include with the Recruiter of the Month feature in TE Network:

1. The top five (5) recruiters for the month.
2. The cash-in total for each recruiter during the month. (We base the order of the recruiters on their amount of cash-in dollars, as opposed to the number of split placements they’ve made.)
3. The number of splits that the recruiters made during the month.
4. The number of splits each recruiter has made during their TE Network career.
5. Each recruiter’s cash-in total for their TE Network career.

With this format, it’s more likely that there will be ties among recruiters, especially with those TE Network members who have made split placements with each other.

Once again, congratulations to the recruiters listed below . . . and congratulations to every TE Network member who made a split placement (or multiple splits) during the month!
