Recruiter of the Week: the Legendary Terry Rhodes!

This man started in the recruiting profession in 1994. His agency joined Top Echelon Network that very same year. (Although at the time, it was called Nationwide Interchange Service.)

This man has made 154 placements during his over 23 years in our recruiting network. He’s billed nearly $1.2 million, as well.

And this man was a force to be reckoned with at Charlotte Motor Speedway during the 2007 Top Echelon National Convention (pictured above). Who is this man?

None other than the legendary Terry Rhodes of NewCareers!

Terry Rhodes: a “recruiter’s recruiter”

Why is Terry Rhodes a legend? Well, if all of the things we just pointed out aren’t enough, there are even MORE reasons:

• During the past three decades, the recruiting profession has changed drastically. First, there was the Internet (hello, job boards). Then, there was social media (hello, LinkedIn). Then, there were smartphones. Oh, and let’s not forget the Great Recession (hello, no job orders). In the midst of it all, Terry has persevered and shifted gears, continually re-inventing himself in the face of challenges and obstacles. Terry made 12 split placements in Top Echelon Network in 2017. Clearly, Terry Rhodes is a “recruiter’s recruiter.”

• Terry has set the bar it terms of the Top Echelon Network Pillar of Quality. He adheres to a high standard of quality. That includes providing quality for his split recruiting partners and also expecting quality from them in return.

• Terry Rhodes is a model Top Echelon Network recruiter. He’s split-minded. He’s exceptionally knowledgeable about recruiting, his niche, and the placement process. He brands himself in a very positive way with his trading partners, starting with the fact that he supplies candidates that are a dead-on fit. In short, Terry Rhodes gets results.

So for all of these reasons, we’re pleased to announce that Terry is the first Recruiter of the Week in the Network for 2018!
