Recruiters Make Their First TE Split Placement!

We have yet more Top Echelon members making their first split placement in the Network!

Joining the fray this week are two recruiters. They are Paul Mattocks of LFP Associates and Carlton Spinks of Gateway Sourcing, LLC. As you can see below, both made a split with the reigning Top Echelon Network Recruiter of the Year, Michael Stuck of Gables Search Group.

Paul and Michael placed an Injection Molding Engineer to earn a fee of $18.525. Carlton and Michael, on the other hand, placed a Software Developer to generate a fee of $21,375.

Congratulations are also in order for Top Echelon Network veterans Doug Boyce of Priority One Search and Jim Strickland of BioSource Recruiters. Doug and Jim accounted for the largest split fee of the week, placing a Project Engineer to earn a fee of $28K at 20%.

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

  • Names of the split recruiting partners involved (with their profile photos, when available)
  • Job title
  • Overall placement fee (before TE’s 6% brokerage fee, of course)
  • Fee percentage

Please note that the placements listed below reflect deals finalized in Top Echelon Network for the period from May 15 through May 21, 2023.  

Remember, if you don’t want information related to your Network 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 Top Echelon Network!
