Sarah Katz Cashes in as October’s Top Recruiter

Recruiter Sarah Katz of First Search, Inc. has been a consistently productive member of TE Network for the past several years, and now Sarah is the Recruiter of the Month in the Network for October!

As you can see below, Sarah was part of three split placements during the month, and her cash-in total for those three splits was a bit more than $46K. That was $7K more than the second-place finisher, Clint Martz of A to Z Search Group.

But let’s face it: anybody who made a placement in TE Network in October is a winner! And if you didn’t make a split during the month?

Well . . . there’s always November.

Here is the information that we include with the Recruiter of the Month feature in TE Network:

  1. The top five (5) recruiters for the month.
  2. The cash-in total for each recruiter during the month. (We base the order of the recruiters on their amount of cash-in dollars, as opposed to the number of split placements they’ve made.)
  3. The number of splits that the recruiters made during the month.
  4. The number of splits each recruiter has made during their TE Network career.
  5. Each recruiter’s cash-in total for their TE Network career.

With this format, it’s more likely that there will be ties among recruiters, especially with those TE Network members who have made split placements with each other.

Once again, congratulations to the recruiters listed below . . . and congratulations to every TE Network member who made a split placement (or multiple splits) during the month!
