Expert PA Recruiting Services for Assistants

Recruiter costs vary by engagement type, seniority, urgency, search complexity, and whether the placement is contract, temp-to-hire, contingent, or retained. For permanent placements, agencies often charge a percentage of the hired candidate’s first-year compensation. Contract staffing is usually billed through an hourly or daily markup. Ikon Search can align the model to the role and hiring timeline.

Yes, physician assistants remain in strong demand across healthcare because providers need flexible clinical support and patients need broader access to care. However, Ikon Search’s PA Recruiting Services page focuses on Personal Assistant recruitment, including executive, administrative, and private household support roles.

On this page, PA means Personal Assistant rather than Physician Assistant.

These roles often require exceptional discretion, calendar management, travel coordination, communication skills, and the ability to support executives, principals, founders, family offices, or corporate teams.

Candidates are evaluated through a structured process that may include interviews, experience review, technical or situational assessments, reference checks, and alignment with the organization’s culture, values, and long-term goals.
