Sales and Marketing Making a Surge in Network Placements

Every quarter, we compile statistics in Top Echelon Network, looking for trends that might interest our Preferred Member recruiters.

We’ve done so again for the third quarter, and we did discover a trend.  That trend is this: the Sales & Marketing discipline is making a surge in the Network as far as placements are concerned.

The Industry & Manufacturing and Engineering disciplines are first and second in the Network, respectively, in terms of placements.  That’s not a surprise.  What IS a surprise is that Sales & Marketing has surpassed IT/Information Systems/Data Processing.

That means Sales & Marketing is now in third place in Top Echelon Network, pushing IT into the fourth position.  Below is a breakdown of the top five disciplines in terms of placements made:

  • Industry & Manufacturing—27.2%
  • Engineering—24.3%
  • Sales & Marketing—11.3%
  • IT/Information Systems/Data Processing—10.4%
  • Healthcare—7.2%

Below are Network statistics for the third quarter, including percentages for job orders, candidates, and placements in relation to the major disciplines.
