RECRUITER OF THE MONTH:

Trey Cameron of the Cameron Craig Group

Trey Cameron

Yeah, Your Friendly Neighborhood Trey Cameron cleaned up again, making eight split placements last month.  (That was after he made eight Network split placements during the month of May.)  As you might imagine, that total was more than enough to claim the top spot for the 30 days that June contained.

Tied for second place with three split placements apiece were two recruiters: Ann Boland of The Boland Group and Nick Stoia of ASAP Search & Recruiters.  Making two split placements each were John Peterson of Sun Recruiting, Inc. and Steve Kohn of Affinity Executive Search.

— — —

LARGEST SPLIT FEE OF THE MONTH:

Joan R. Walters, CPC of JR Walters Resources and Ann Boland of The Boland Group

The position for this split placement was a Director of Sales & Marketing.  Walters was the job order recruiter, and Boland was the candidate recruiter.  The action that stimulated this split placement was listed as, “Regular communication with another Top Echelon Network recruiter.”

OUR CRITERIA FOR THESE RECRUITER AWARDS:

Top Echelon Network determines the monthly and quarterly award winners based upon two criteria, which are listed below in order of importance:

1.) The number of split placements made
2.) The amount of “cash-in” dollars earned as a result of those split placements

This explains why, when multiple recruiters are tied with the same number of split placements during a given month or quarter, the recruiter with the largest “cash-in” total for their placements is deemed the winner.

THE SPLIT CANDIDATES:

Everybody wants great candidates.  Companies want them. Recruiters want them.

And recruiters who are part of Top Echelon Network are finding them.  HOW are they finding them?  By investing in their Membership and using their Trading Partners for help.

Like, for example, the Network recruiters in this week’s installment of’ “‘Comments’ and Compliments.”  Every single one of the job recruiters listed below are ecstatic about the quality of the candidates they received from their Trading Partners.

Below are some of the phrases that were used:

• “great attention to what is really wanted”
• “needle in a haystack”
• “hit the nail on the head”
• “great candidate for a hard-to-fill position”

These kinds of placements happen in Top Echelon Network every week.  To learn more about how YOU can start making more placements in the Network, contact Director of Network Operations Drea Codispoti, CERS at 330.455.1433, x156 or via email at drea@topechelon.com.

Congratulations to everybody who made split placements this week!

RECRUITER OF THE WEEK:

Ann Boland

Ann Boland of The Boland Group

Agency Join Date: November 14, 2001

Started Recruiting: 1999

Accomplishments:

Ann Boland is proof of the value that Top Echelon Network Membership provides and how you NEVER know when that value will pay off.

In 2005, Boland made 13 placements in Top Echelon Network.  She then made three in 2006, two apiece in both 2007 and 2008, three in 2009, and one in 2010.

Unfortunately, Boland did not make a placement in the Network in 2011.  Then, after making one in October of 2012, she again went placement-less in Top Echelon last year.

However, Boland did NOT stop trying to make placements in the Network . . . and she has been rewarded for her persistence and patience.  How has she been rewarded?

With three placements in the month of June!

And not just any placements, either.  We’re talking about placements with substantial fees.  (One of them is over—cough, cough—$50,000.)

So despite not making a placement in the Network in two of the past three years, with one fell swoop Boland paid for her Network Membership for the next 16 years.

So . . . for her commitment, her patience, her perseverance, and her unwavering belief in the value that split placements and Top Echelon Network provides (not to mention one of the best and most detailed Recruiter Profiles in the Network), Ann Boland is the Recruiter of the Week.

Congratulations to Ann Boland from everybody at Top Echelon!

If you’d like to nominate somebody as the Recruiter of the Week, please send their name and agency name to marketing@topechelon.com.
