Presenting the Top TE Recruiters for 2021

It’s that time of year again . . . that’s right, the time of year when we talk about last year.

Specifically, we’d like to discuss the top recruiters in Top Echelon Network for 2021. And even more specifically than that, we’d like to discuss the top 10 TE recruiters of the year.

And to end the drama, we’d like to take a moment to announce that Michael Stuck of Gables Search Group is the Recruiter of the Year in the Network! As you can see below, Michael billed more than $1 million through the Network in 2021 on the strength of 150 split placements.

Also as you can see below, perennial Top Producers Steve Kohn of Affinity Executive Search, Inc. and Trey Cameron of Cameron Craig Group rounded out the top three. Michael, Steve, and Trey have been consistently vying for the top spot on a monthly and quarterly basis all year long.

Before we unveil the full list of top-producing recruiters (although I suspect that we have already done that), I must trot out our usual disclaimer regarding these rankings:

Our annual list of the top recruiters is determined by Top Echelon Network members’ cash-in total in our split network on a rolling 12-month basis. The order of the list below reflects the recruiters’ cash-in total for the 2021 calendar year, which ended at midnight on December 31, 2021.

So congratulations to the recruiters listed below and congratulations to every Network member who made a split placement during the year of 2021!
