Giving the Gift of Holiday Placements in TE Network!

Christmas is in two days! New Year’s Day is in nine days! Could time be flying by any faster?

I’d like to say that the answer to that question is “No,” but then time would just fly by even faster to spite me. (Time and I have that kind of relationship.)

Anyway, first things first, and first things include this week’s placements in The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog!

You may have read that Amy Chapman of Key People Staffing recently became the latest recruiter to reach the $1 million plateau within TE Network. Well, Amy is showing no signs of slowing down!

That’s because not only is Amy part of three split placements in this week’s newsletter, but she’s also part of the largest split fee of the week. Amy and Jeff Katz of JSK Recruiting placed a Senior Director of Global Maintenance Process Systems to earn a split fee of $62,500 at 25%!

You have to admit that even when you split that fee, you can still buy a lot of presents with it.

So congratulations to Amy, Jeff, and everybody who made placements this week . . . and Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all of you.

Let’s finish the year strong and make it a great 2025!

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

  • Names of the split recruiting 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 December 9 through December 15, 2024.

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.

Congratulations to everybody below for the split placements they made in TE Network!
