THE RECRUITERS:
Okay, let’s just face facts. With less than two months left in 2013, nobody is going to catch Trey Cameron of the Cameron Craig Group.
Not only has he won just about every Recruiter of the Month award in Top Echelon Network during 2013, but he’s also well on his way to winning the Recruiter of the Year award for the third straight year. As of the writing of this article, he held a substantial lead on the second-place recruiter, Sean Napoles, CPC of Career Brokers, Inc. (It should be pointed out that Napoles, one of the most consistent producers in the history of Top Echelon Network, is enjoying yet another banner year.)
However, attention should also be drawn to Mary Anne Buckley, CPC of Interstate Recruiters Corp and Stephanie McGinty of Ives & Associates, Inc., who shared the award for the Largest Split Fee of the Month in October. Buckley and McGinty have made four Network splits with each other, all involving very substantial fees. In fact, two of those splits occurred this year, and the fees for BOTH were over $30,000.
One, of course, stood out above the other. (Check their respective recruiter profiles to find out by exactly how much.)
THE AWARDS:
At Top Echelon Network, we recognize recruiters for both monthly and quarterly performance in four categories—Recruiter of the Month, Recruiter of the Quarter, Largest Split Fee of the Month, and Largest Split Fee of the Quarter.

Trey Cameron of the Cameron Craig Group
Cameron has been consistently raising the bar as far as what it takes to earn Recruiter of the Month honors in the Network. That bar is now between five and seven split placements per month. The latter is what he produced during the month of October, as he captured yet another award.
Steve Kohn of Affinity Executive Search was next with five placements, while Michael Stuck of Gables Search Group finished third with four placements. Those figures both represent excellent production . . . but not enough to win the Recruiter of the Month Award.

LARGEST SPLIT FEE OF THE MONTH:

Mary Anne Buckley, CPC of Interstate Recruiters Corp and Stephanie McGinty of Ives & Associates, Inc.
The position for this split placement was an Associate Director of Medical Communications. Buckley was the job order recruiter, and McGinty 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.

“Angela and I first met at one of the TE conventions a long time ago and have worked together for a while at making a split. We both attended the last National Convention in St. Pete and told each other we would make a split before the upcoming Chicago [Fall Conference]. This split was our first one, and we got it right before the conference. Not bad. Goes to show you how valuable the conventions can be. Thanks, Angela, for your hard work on this one. What a gem you are to Top Echelon Network!”
“Finally, Colleen and I made our first split. We’ve had our fair share of turndowns, that’s for sure. I think this is our third or fourth offer we’ve had together this year, and finally someone has accepted the offer and has an official start date. It’s so nice working with Colleen. I can’t say enough about how her candidates are a great match for my client’s jobs. Now that we got this first one, Colleen, I know there will be many more. Thanks!”
