You read that correctly—recruiters Gary Silver and Donna Carroll have made their 50th split placement together in Top Echelon Network!

There simply are not enough superlatives to describe the excellence surrounding their abilities as recruiters and as Trading Partners.  The simple facts surrounding their achievements speak volumes:

  • Gary has made 236 placements as a Preferred Member recruiter in Top Echelon Network.
  • Donna has made 132 placements as a Preferred Member recruiter in Top Echelon Network.
  • They have a combined total of 47 years of recruiting experience.
  • They have a combined tenure in Top Echelon Network of 44 years.
  • They’ve made both direct-hire split placements and contract split placements in Top Echelon.
  • Donna has made 59 contract placements through Top Echelon Contracting, and five of those were splits with Gary.
  • Gary has made nine contract placements through Top Echelon Contracting, and five of those were splits with Donna.
Below are comments from their 50th Network split placement, and below that are comments both of them have made regarding the strength and success of their Trading Partner relationship.

As you can see, Gary and Donna both adhere to The Four Pillars of Top Echelon Network (especially Trust)—they believe in them, they practice them, and they’re one of the main reasons these two recruiters have made 50 split placements together.

Congratulations to Gary and Donna from everybody at Top Echelon!


“Extraordinary [Trading] Partner Donna Carroll does it again!  Thanks, Donna!”

- Submitted by Gary Silver of The Shay Group regarding his Network split placement with Donna Carroll, CPC of Systems Personnel

Position Title--DEVOPS ENGINEER
Fee Percentage--22%

(Editor’s note: This is the 50th Network split placement that Silver and Carroll  have made together in Top Echelon.)

“I believe the reason cited for our split placements (regular communication) is exactly the reason our Trading Partner relationship works so well.  Not only do we share all details regarding our searches and candidates, but we also involve one another in our client relationships.  Gary and I have often introduced one another to our clients and included the other on conference calls with our clients.

“Obviously, this approach allows us to know as much as possible about our respective searches, but it also demonstrates to our clients that we have a team of highly qualified recruiters working on their behalf.  This level of trust comes from years of cooperative work and understanding each other’s business philosophy.  It also enables us to be a sounding board for the other when we need a second opinion or some advice on how to handle a particular situation.

“Were it not for our regular communication over the years, we would not have developed this level of trust that is the root of our success together.”

- Submitted by Donna Carroll, CPC of Systems Personnel regarding her Trading Partner relationship with Gary Silver of The Shay Group.

“To be good partners, we have developed a solid foundation of trust.  We listen to each other regarding the requirements of the searches we work to fill, along with, of course, the subtleties and nuances that come up in the placement dance.

“And like a prescription, we communicate on an as-needed basis.  All that being said–we are genuinely mindful of each other’s best interest, on an equal measure with our own.”

“Please don’t send me any more @$$ho!e$.”

Says the hiring manager to the recruiter: “Please don’t send me any more @$$ho!e$.”  You know there has to be a good story behind that opening line, right?  ;-)

After a recent interview with one of my clients, I received some disappointing feedback about a candidate. Despite my efforts to prepare the candidate, he disregarded my guidance and did not research the company prior to the interview. So, when my client asked the candidate what he knew about them, he had nothing to say and—even worse—showed no interest in learning about them. Consequently, my client rejected the candidate despite the fact that his skills and background were exactly what they needed. The candidate sabotaged himself with his arrogance and disinterest.

When I shared this with a recruiting partner, he told me a similar story about one of his clients. Same situation—the candidate had the exact credentials, experience, and skills the client was seeking. During his interview, the candidate demonstrated the same degree of arrogance and entitlement. Following the interview, the hiring manager called my friend and said, “We’ve been searching for a very long time to find a candidate with his exact skills and experience, but please don’t send me any more @$$ho!e$.” I must admit that’s pretty blunt, but it certainly gets the message across, doesn't it?

So, the next time you have an interview scheduled, remember to wear your ‘charm suit’, demonstrate your interest by researching the company, and most of all—be humble!
