Steve Kohn Edges Michael Stuck in Epic Battle

Top Echelon members Steve Kohn of Affinity Executive Search, Inc. and Michael Stuck of Gables Search Group have both been the Recruiter of the Month in the Network on multiple occasions.

And they battled it out with one another in close fashion last month. When “the dust had settled,” less than $1,000 separated the two recruiters. In the end, it was Kohn who claimed Recruiter of the Month honors with a cash-in total of $82,838!

Kohn snapped a winning streak for Stuck, who had been Recruiter of the Month in the Network in each of the four months preceding August.

Below is the information that we include with the Recruiters of the Month in Top Echelon Network:

1. The top 10 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 made during the month.)
3. The number of splits the recruiters made during the month
4. The date that each recruiter’s agency joined Top Echelon Network
5. The number of splits each recruiter has made during their Network career
6. Each recruiter’s cash-in total for their Network career

With this format, there are more likely to be ties among recruiters, especially with those members who have made split placements with each other.

Congratulations to Steve Kohn and the recruiters listed below . . . and congratulations to every Network member who made a split placement (or multiple splits) during the month of August!
