Yes. Full-time permanent recruitment is available for legal support, administrative, HR, accounting, and corporate services roles.

It is useful for high-trust legal support roles, fast-growing Austin teams, or situations where both the company and candidate benefit from confirming fit in real working conditions.

Ikon Search emphasizes clean, quality-driven candidate pipelines. Candidates are assessed for relevant experience, technical skills, communication style, professionalism, and alignment with the client’s culture and long-term goals. The process may include recruiter interviews, role-specific screening, technical assessments where appropriate, and reference checks before a candidate is introduced.

Engagement terms are shaped by the hiring model, role level, urgency, search complexity, and whether the position is contract, temp-to-hire, permanent, contingent, or retained. Ikon Search first clarifies the business need and then recommends a staffing approach that matches the timeline, risk profile, and long-term hiring goals.
