Two TE Recruiters Make Four Splits Apiece

Remember last week, when we highlighted Top Echelon Network members Maria Hemminger of MJ Recruiters, LLC and Jim Strickland of BioSource Recruiters for finalizing three TE split placements in a single week? So do we.

This week, though, we’re highlight two more Network members. The difference is that these recruiters finalized four splits in a single week! (Although they didn’t make the splits with one another, as Maria and Jim did.)

The recruiters in question are Brad Dodge of iLocatum and Phil Hurd of Oculus Search Partners. Like Maria and Jim, Brad and Phil are Top Producers in the Network.

In fact, Phil is currently ranked sixth in the Network in terms of cash-in production during the past 12 months. Brad is just outside the top 10, residing in the 11th spot.

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)
  • Job title
  • Overall placement fee (before TE’s 6% brokerage fee, of course)
  • Fee percentage

Please note that the placements listed below reflect deals finalized in Top Echelon Network for the period from June 26 through July 2, 2023.  

Remember, if you don’t want information related to your Network placements published in The Pinnacle, please send an email to marketing@topechelon.com to that effect.

Congratulations to everybody below for the split placements they made in Top Echelon Network!
