The job market remains red-hot, including for recruiters!

The latest evidence of this is listed below, namely the 27 split placements that Network recruiters racked up last week. There were a number of members leading the way, including Phil Hurd of Oculus Search Partners, LLC. Phil accounted for four splits during the week.

And congratulations to Amy Chapman of Key People Staffing and John Ricciardi of Afton Consulting Group. The dynamic duo placed a Director of Food Safety & Quality Assurance Systems for a $40K fee at 25%!

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)

If you’re a newer Network member and you’d like to enjoy more success in our recruiter network, then I encourage you to contact Top Echelon Director of Network Operations Drea Codispoti, CPC/CERS.

You can do so by calling 330.455.1433, x156 or by sending an email to drea@topechelon.com.

Pat McCombs, CPC of KB Search Team, LLC has been a “milestone” machine as of late.

Let’s start with the fact that Pat is celebrating her 40th year as a recruiter and search consultant this year. Then there is the fact that she reached the 100-placement plateau in Top Echelon’s recruiting network, although that was a couple of years ago.

Pat McCombs, CPC of KB Search Team, LLC

Pat McCombs, CPC

Relatively recently, though, Pat reached the $1 million mark as a member of the Network!

In fact, due to the fact that Pat remains busy in the Network, she currently sits at just north of $1.2 million in TE billings for her career. She’s made nine split placements already in 2022.

Pat has been a model Top Echelon recruiter during her time in the Network. She’s split-minded, she adheres to all of The Four Pillars of Top Echelon Network, and she’s a big advocate of attending recruiter networking events like our National Convention and Fall Conference.

We at Top Echelon could truly not ask for a better Network member than Pat McCombs. She has a passion for recruiting, a passion for people, and a passion to make split placements!

“I have been a recruiter for 40 years, and a good portion of that time I have been part of Top Echelon Network,” said Pat. “I have worked with many amazing network partners, and I hope that I will continue to do so in the future. I am OLD, but I love this business and plan to continue working for several more years!”

Pat, of course, is part of one of the most successful recruiting agencies in the history of the Network. KB Search Team, LLC has been with Top Echelon for almost the entirety of its 34-year history. During its tenure, the agency has accounted for a whopping 322 TE placements and a cash-in total of nearly $2.5 million.

So congratulations not only to Pat McCombs, but also to all of the recruiters and employees of KB Search Team, LLC.

We look forward to many more years of helping them make split placements!

We’re constantly upgrading both the Top Echelon recruiting software and our split placement network software.

So we’re pleased to announce the following updates:

1. Ability to Mass Disqualify in Pipeline

Disqualify has been added as an option in the action menu of the Pipeline Inbox, In Play, and All Records views. This new action allows you to save time by selecting and disqualifying candidates in a mass format.

3. People and Company ‘Has Mobile’ Advanced Search Field

We’ve added a new Advanced Search option that allows for further filtering of your results list based on the existence (or lack) of a mobile phone number.

4. Search for Jobs Advertised to LinkedIn and ZipRecruiter

The Advertising card in Jobs Advanced Search now includes the option to search for jobs that are posted to LinkedIn Limited Listings and ZipRecruiter.

5. [BETA TESTING] Posting Jobs to Indeed

We have started beta testing the ability to post jobs from the software and receive applicants directly through an existing Indeed account(If you’re currently posting to Indeed and interested in beta testing this new time-saving feature, send an email to beta@topechelon.com.)

Remember, you can always stay informed by visiting the official Top Echelon Product Updates page. You can see current and past updates, as well as which updates and upgrades are next.

(Note: As mentioned above, if you’re interested in Beta testing upcoming features in the software, we encourage you to email us at beta@topechelon.com.)

If you have questions about these updates or about any other aspect of your Top Echelon Network membership and/or recruiting software account, you can:
