In 1998, Kent Smith set out to make a difference in the IT consulting industry... over a decade later, he did!
Kent leads Eikon Consulting Group with a passion for making a difference in the industry, his clients, and the talent he serves. Kent's goal is to bring a new dimension to the recruiting process… Honesty, integrity and ‘doing the right thing' are the guiding principles and foundation of Eikon Consulting Group.
Having worked with many of the Fortune 100 companies in Dallas/Ft. Worth for more than a decade, Kent launched Eikon Consulting Group in 2013. Through his years in the business, Kent had amassed a network of some of the brightest IT recruiting talent in the industry.
