TE Network’s Largest Split Fees in March

There’s only one thing better than big placement fees . . . multiple big placement fees!

And that is exactly what we have in this issue of The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog, starting with the Largest Split Fee of the Month in TE Network.

Responsible for that fee are Teresa Pernini of Pernini Legal, LLC and Theo Bates of Archer Hires. Teresa and Theo placed an Environmental Associate Attorney to earn a $55K fee at 25%.

Not only that, but there are also recruiters whose first TE Network splits are counted among the top split fees of the month. Those recruiters include Dianne Flory Intal of Success Matcher Recruitment, LLC; Hue Polinski of Sun Recruiting, Inc.; and Melissa Zuniga of Eden Capital Careers.

As a friendly reminder, Top Echelon determines the monthly and quarterly winners of its TE Network split fee recruiting awards in four distinct categories:

1.) Recruiter of the Month
2.) Largest Split Fee of the Month
3.) Recruiter of the Quarter
4.) Largest Split Fee of the Quarter

We only announce the winners of these awards in The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog. We do so usually (but not always) in the issue following the conclusion of each month and/or quarter.

So congratulations to everybody on the list below for scoring some BIG placement fees during the month!
