Recent Split Placements in TE Network

We have the most recent TE Network split placements in this issue of The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog!

And it just so happens that there’s a recruiter in the Network who has made their first TE split placement. That recruiter is Alpana Kapur of Saba Talent.

Alpana made her split with Dan Trudeau of PRA USA. Alpana and Dan placed a Warranty Manager – Electronics to earn a $28,000 fee at 20%.

However, there are other recruiters who made split placements in TE Network recently . . . and they’re all listed below!

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

  • Names of the trading 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 May 5 through May 18, 2025.

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!
