At the end of June, we presented the “Maria and Jo Split Placement Show!” in The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog.

Well, now we’re back with another “4-Pack of MJ Recruiters Placement Goodness!” (which, as you’ll see below, sometimes includes chocolate).

And why is that?  Because Maria Hemminger, Joanna Spaun, and everybody else at MJ Recruiters, LLC keep making split placements, that’s why.

Not only that, but they keep making split placements in niches they don’t normally make placements, and they keep making split placements in geographical regions in which they normally don’t make them, either.

In short, they’re leveraging the resources of Top Echelon Network exactly the way a recruiting firm should, and as a result, they’re making placements they normally would not have made.  That means more revenue for them, for their firm, and for the future.

And what we’d all like more of in the future is “placement goodness.”  Come, on . . . admit it.

So once again, congratulations to Maria, Jo, everybody else at MJ Recruiters, and all of the recruiters who have made splits with their firm.  There are sure to be many more to come.

YWho are we highlighting in this week’s installment of split placements?  Well, Jim Strickland of BioSource International, if you hadn’t figured that out already!

But we’re featuring much more than Jim.  (Sorry, Jim.) We’re also highlighting our Hiring Hook Websites, namely because they account for over half of the split placements listed below.

When filling out the split placement form, the job order recruiter always fills in the section titled, “Action causing split placement.”  In five of the eight split placements below, they chose, “The job seeker or client was found through my Hiring Hook Website.”

Then they cashed a placement check from their client and probably celebrated in some way.

The fact of the matter is that more and more recruiters are reaping the benefits of having a Hiring Hook Website for their firm.  More placements are more placements.  The proof is in the pudding.  It will all come out in the wash.  How many more clichés can I use?

Click here to learn more about Hiring Hook.  Oh, and make more split placements.  They’re fun!

If you read The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog with any regularity, you know how much we (me, specifically) enjoy weaving pop culture throughout the publication—especially when it comes to split placements.

Well, we’re (I’m) at it again this week, with a blatant reference to the movie The Usual Suspects.  Not that there’s going to be some sort of “Keyser Soze snap ending” to this blog post or anything.

However, when it comes to this week’s split placements, the “usual suspects” in the Network are definitely represented.

You’ve got Trey Cameron of the Cameron Craig Group . . .

Sean Napoles of Career Brokers . . .

Dan Simmons of Continental Search & Outplacement . . .

And many more!  (Sorry, I had to throw that in there.)  These recruiters have taken advantage of the opportunities that Top Echelon Network offers, and as a result, they continue to make split placements week after week, month after month, and year after year—and you can, too!

It might be an understatement to say that the first two recruiters featured in this installment of “‘Comments’ and Compliments” are on a roll.

These two recruiters have made four split placements in the past 12 months.

They’ve made seven split placements since March of last year.

In all likelihood, they’re going to make even more split placements before the end of 2012.

These recruiters underscore the beauty of Trading Partner relationships in Top Echelon Network.  Once you form a relationship with another recruiter and make a split placement, it becomes easier to make another . . . and another . . . and another.

That’s because the process has been created, proven, and repeated—and there’s no limit to how many split placements two recruiters can make.  They’re like Doritos.  They’ll “just make more.”

So grab a bag of Cool Ranch and enjoy this week’s “‘Comments’ and Compliments.”

If you’d like to thank another recruiter for their efforts in a split placement situation, send your information to marketing@topechelon.com. Your comments might be included in an upcoming issue of The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog!

It’s not even August yet, but this might go down as the hottest summer ever . . . in the history of ever.  (And if it doesn’t, I’m sure it will be near the top of the charts.)

Over half of the country might be experiencing a drought right now, but Top Echelon Network Preferred Members aren’t experiencing a drought as far as split placements are concerned.  In fact, our forecast calls for clear skies, intense heat, and a 100% chance of split placements!

Our forecast is much more fun than the one your meteorologist delivers on a daily basis.

However, rather than predict exactly who is going to make splits in the next week or even month, we have the weekly list of who’s already made split placements, and that list is detailed below.  So, rather than a weather forecast, this is more like . . . a crop report.

Okay, enough with the weather and farming metaphors.  These people made splits and collected fees they probably would not have collected otherwise.  Kudos all around . . .

When you make nine placements in Top Echelon Network in the same quarter, there’s an excellent chance you’re going to be named “Recruiter of the Quarter.”

Well, that happened during the second quarter.  The Preferred Member recruiter who accomplished the feat?  None other than Trey Cameron of the Cameron Craig Group, the Network’s “Top-Producing Recruiter” in 2011.

Cameron, who’s currently atop the 2012 leader board, is well on his way to garnering the “Top-Producing” honors once again this year.

However, Cameron wasn’t part of the “Highest Split Placement Fee of the Quarter,” so he’s NOT involved in every award we announce . . . although sometimes it seems as though that’s the case.

Below are the winners of the recognition awards for the second quarter of this year.  We’d like to congratulate those recruiters who earned them and thank them for their efforts.

For more information about the placements and cash-in totals associated with these recognition awards, please login to the Members’ Area and view the profiles and placement details of the recruiters involved.

— — —

Recruiter of the Quarter
Trey Cameron of the Cameron Craig Group

You’d think that Trey wouldn’t be able to top what he did during the first quarter (seven placements), but he did just that with a whopping nine placements during the second quarter.

Other recruiters enjoyed highly productive quarters, as well, including Maria Hemminger of MJ Recruiters, LLC (six placements) and Sean Napoles, CPC of Career Brokers, Inc. and Marc Tappis of Opportunity Search, Inc. (four placements apiece).

— — —

Highest Split Placement Fee of the Quarter
Steve Copeland of Albert Energy, LLC and Jeff Gilbert of Kingfish Technology, LLC

This placement was for a Global Alliance Program Director.  Copeland was the job order recruiter, and Gilbert was the candidate recruiter.  The action causing this split placement was listed as, “Regular communication with another Top Echelon Network Preferred Member recruiter in my specialty area.”

— — —

Our criteria for these recognition awards:

Top Echelon Network is a split placement network.  As such, we place an emphasis on split placements, and that emphasis constitutes the basis of our criteria for these recognition awards.  We determine the quarterly award winners based upon two factors, 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

In other words, the number of split placements that recruiters make is our first consideration.  In the event of a tie, the cash-in total earned from those split placements is the deciding factor and serves to break the tie.  Obviously, the recruiter with more cash-in dollars in the event of a tie is the recruiter who wins the recognition award.

Just a little over 45 years ago, the musical group The Doors released its debut album (named, as might have guessed, The Doors).  On that album—sadly, there were no iPods back then—was a song by the title of “Break on Through (to the Other Side).”

What the heck does this have to do with anything, much less our “‘Comments’ and Compliments” feature?

Well, plenty, since the recruiters we’re featuring this week are making their first split placements with each other.  In fact, one of the recruiters involved made her first placement as a Preferred Member recruiter in Top Echelon Network.  Congratulations, Jeri Bartunek!

Why link split placements to a Doors song?  Because we want you humming the song all day, that’s why.  No, actually, because recruiters are making split placements with new Trading Partners all the time, on an almost weekly basis.

They’re “breaking on through to the other side” and as a result, cashing placement checks they probably wouldn’t be cashing otherwise . . . and of course, they’re complimenting one another for it.

If you’d like to thank another recruiter for their efforts in a split placement situation, send your information to marketing@topechelon.com. Your comments might be included in an upcoming issue of The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog!

“Break on through to the other side . . . break on through to the other side . . .”

At Top Echelon Network, we love to recognize Preferred Member recruiters for the split placements they make in the Network . . . which means we love recognizing them for two split placements in the same week twice as much!

That’s the case this week with Preferred Member Brenda Wylie-Biggs of KB Search Team, LLC.

Wylie-Biggs made a pair of split placements this past week, pushing her total this year to seven splits at just past the midway point in 2012.  She’s proven to be a very consistent producer in Top Echelon Network, making a total of 77 placements since becoming a Preferred Member recruiter.

Would we love to recognize YOU for making two split placements in the same week?  Of course we would!  So get to work . . . we mean it . . . make two split placements.

What are you waiting for?

There aren’t many recruiters in the Network who have been enjoying as much success together recently as the ones highlighted in this week’s installment of “‘Comments and Compliments.'”

Those recruiters are Steve Kane of Bio-Partners Search Group, LLC and Stephanie McGinty of Ives & Associates, Inc.

Kane and Ives made yet another split placement together recently, their second of 2012.  Their first placement this year was an Associate Director of Market Research, while their most recent split was for an Associate Director of Global Market Research.

So far, Kane and Ives have made five split placements together in the Network.  The really good news: the average fee for those five splits is well over $30,000.  It might be accurate to say that these two recruiters are “on fire” . . . though not literally.

That’s not all we have this week, either!  That’s because David Kersey of Kersey & Associates, Inc. made his 101st placement as a Preferred Member recruiter in Top Echelon Network.  Congratulations to Dave, Steve, Stephanie, and everybody else who made placements this week

If you’d like to thank another recruiter for their efforts in a split placement situation, send your information to marketing@topechelon.com. Your comments might be included in an upcoming issue of The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog!

With the exception of the Cameron Craig Group, no Preferred Member recruiting firm in Top Echelon Network is churning out split placements as quickly as MJ Recruiters, LLC.

Maria Hemminger and Joanna Spaun are the twin engines that keep MJ Recruiters firing on all cylinders, and their hard work is once again represented in this week’s split placements in The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog.

Since January of 2012, MJ Recruiters has accounted for 11 split placements.  Projected over the course of the year, that total will be well over 20 splits.

So this week, we’d like to congratulate MJ Recruiters for their hard work and success as Preferred Member recruiters . . . by presenting “The Maria and Jo Split Placement Show.”  It’s a show that should continue running for quite a while . . .
