First Interview National Meetings | Connect & Grow Your Network

The First Interview National Meeting isn’t just an event—it’s the cornerstone of our most successful split partnerships. Year after year, attendees describe this gathering as the single most important catalyst for boosting their annual revenue through trusted network connections.

The Power of Face-to-Face Trust

In a world of digital communication, we believe in the power of "meeting the voice." Our annual meetings are strategically designed to move you beyond the phone and email, allowing you to build the deep, personal trust required for high-stakes split placements. By connecting in person, you aren't just finding a partner; you’re building a long-term alliance with a professional who understands your workflow and your candidates.

Innovation Through Collaboration

Stay ahead of a constantly evolving industry with member-driven roundtable discussions and expert guest speakers. These sessions offer a rare opportunity to exchange "in-the-trenches" solutions to common recruiting challenges. Whether it's navigating new AI tools or refining candidate engagement strategies, you’ll leave with actionable insights shared by the top-performing recruiters in the world.

Engage, Relax, and Connect

Networking doesn't only happen in a conference room. Our hosted social activities—ranging from "Beach Olympics" to upscale Round-Up BBQs—provide a relaxed environment to "let your hair down" and forge friendships that last decades. These experiences are consistently cited by our members as their favorite part of the meeting, offering a chance to recharge while expanding their professional inner circle in some of the most exciting cities across the U.S.

Celebrating Excellence

We take pride in the caliber of our affiliates. Our annual awards ceremony is the highlight of the National Meeting, where we recognize the outstanding achievements of our members and celebrate the professional milestones that set the standard for our industry.
