A good percentage of my business involves split placements. I thought it would be good to take a minute and make a note of some of the principals those of us who do splits should think about. Here are a
few of mine:

In order for me to continue providing the level of service my clients have come to expect from me I must have a strong network of trusted partners. I will do my very best to make

sure our relationship is financially rewarding for you.

I promise to treat your time as valuable as my own. I will not suggest that you work on something that does not have a reasonable chance of success.

I will not keep the “hot” job orders for myself but will let you know as soon as I do when there is an opportunity to score quickly.

I realize there are many different styles of recruiting and will do my best to provide you the information you need in order for us to be successful together. Your need for clarity on position requirements, client benefits, process and feedback, etc.will always be viewed as important as my need for the same.

Presenting your candidates to my clients makes me look good and I value that. I will not use your candidates to gain a stronger position for my own.

Once you have introduced a candidate to me I will treat them with the same urgency and consideration as any candidate I may have generated on my own.

How I treat your candidates is not only a reflection on me - but you as well. Once your candidate is in process I will keep them informed at every turn. I will not leave them wondering what is going on. I will not
avoid their calls when I have bad news.

Upon receipt of payment from client I will IMMEDIATELY send you 50% of the fee. I will not at any time treat your money as my own. It is
yours from the moment it lands on my desk.

That’s all I’ve got for now. Anyone care to add anything?
