Membership Details

First Interview membership is approved through a process. All applicants are carefully screened and selected based upon experience in their field and a proven track record.

The honesty, integrity and professional reputation of prospective affiliates is also considered and verified with other professionals. We look for seasoned professionals that are looking to make more placements and provide better service for both their clients and candidates. At First Interview it is never about quantity but always about quality and we want it to be a win-win for everyone.

Our goal has always been focused on finding quality members that can bring a benefit to the network as a whole. We do not offer exclusives in any location, but we do consult with the current members about any potential affiliate applying for membership that may offer a conflict in their region. Final membership is approved by our advisory board made up of affiliate members.

If you are an independent recruiter and feel that First Interview would be a good fit for you please fill out the affiliate application and we would be happy to discuss membership opportunities.

Requirements
We require four years of industry experience and two years of business history — not to make membership hard to get, but to ensure every partner you meet in our network is worth your time. Quality over quantity has been our philosophy since 1979.
Membership That Pays for Itself — Fast
  • Your $900 initial investment includes:
    • Two full quarters of network access ($600 value)
    • National Meeting registration for one person ($200 value)
    • Platform onboarding & training for your team ($100 value)
  • After that, you pay $300/quarter, plus a 6% brokerage fee only on completed splits. There are no hidden costs. No per-seat licenses. No mandatory ATS purchases. One placement easily covers your annual fees many times over.
  • To put it simply: If you complete just one split placement in your first year at an average fee, your membership has paid for itself and then some.
