We are known for helping companies grow their marketing teams with uniquely-qualified marketing, communications, digital

Approach

Our Approach

With MICA, you have a competitive advantage.


We’re experts in marketing. And we’re experts in recruiting.

 

This dual expertise is what drives our proven success in continuously sourcing outstanding candidates for our clients as they grow their marketing teams. Our approach always starts with active listening, to ensure that we thoroughly understand our clients’ hiring goals, challenges, budgets, and timelines. It is this understanding that then fuels our search strategy, and enables the team at MICA to consistently engage those elusive top-performing candidates.

 

Collaboration is key. Our clients’ success is our goal.

Collaborative

Approach

MICA’s team will work closely with your hiring teams and talent aquisition to understand your business’s current situation, to pinpoint your hiring objectives, and
to meet your hiring timelines.

Extensive Candidate Network

With MICA’s vetted candidate network and our uber-targeted multi-source search approach,
we will quickly bring
uniquely-qualified candidates to your table.

Longer

Retention Rates

MICA’s candidates consistently lead to stronger hires because we ensure that each candidate’s expertise aligns with the role, and that their persona aligns with your company culture.

Services

Our Services

As the talent acquisition lead at your organization, you are continuously balancing business priorities, budgets, and timelines to meet your hiring needs. We get it. And we can help.

 

With MICA, you have a talent acquisition partner that is ready to take on your recruiting initiatives.

Exclusivity

Retainer Search

MICA’s exclusive retainer search approach is consultative and solution oriented.  Our clients hire us typically for executive-level and mid-level searches, as well as hard-to-find talent, where an exceptional skillset is needed.  We focus on finding the best possible candidates to drive your organization’s growth and achieve your goals.

 

Using Project Management methodology, MICA scopes each search and creates a clearly defined profile, plan and timeline with distinct milestones.  Following this methodology, we can quickly bring you the best possible range of uniquely-talented prospects who are engaged and interested.  We can also course correct with ease and flexibility, when necessary. Throughout the process, we continuously leverage our broad industry knowledge and deep leadership candidate networks. Our proactive process and focus on candidate quality, combined with cultural fit consistently leads to strong leadership hires and high retention rates.

Our Hybrid

Container Search

MICA’s container search approach is a modified version of our retainer search services, and answers both your sense of urgency and your need for non-exclusivity. As you prioritize your hiring needs, our container search option makes sense when your key searches are taking too long, but you are required to work with multiple search firms. With our container approach, MICA ensures the commitment of an expert team and resources that are dedicated exclusively to finding candidates with your desired expertise and cultural fit.

Pipelining

Talent Pipelining

This is proactive, relationship-centric recruiting. Beyond your current open roles, you are also likely preparing for future opportunities within your organization. The key advantages of MICA’s talent pipelining approach are reduced time-to-hire, reduced cost-per-hire, and better quality candidates.
As your recruiting partner, MICA will build a pipeline of vetted, engaged, and interested talent that you can leverage
as soon as new roles open up.

Mapping

External Talent Mapping

MICA’s approach to external talent mapping presents a cost-efficient method to proactively build a broad pool of prospective candidates based on your specified attributes and skillset parameters. Because these candidates have not yet been contacted and vetted, the quicker turnaround time for MICA to deliver an initial candidate pool makes this a viable solution to align with your organization’s near- and long-term
talent acquisition plan.

About

Our Story

An entrepreneur at heart, I have always been interested in the stories that excellent businesses tell. How they navigate problems, what makes them successful and how they grow. About ten years into my career, I had developed a strong passion for recruiting great talent to match company strategies; And, I had seen, over and over, how critical top marketing talent is for business success.

 

The marketing function is very complex and means something slightly different to every business depending on their customers, their product, service and their stage of development. Therefore, leveraging marketing for success takes both the right strategic approach and the right team. With this in mind, I founded MICA in 2011 and set out to assemble a band of marketing professionals, whose combined expertise would touch every facet of the marketing universe.

 

Today, whether you lead the marketing function or help run an ad agency, a consumer product brand, a digital or technology enterprise, a professional services or thought leadership business; whether you are global or just starting up – someone on our team has worn your hat. Collectively, we’ve been there and we get it.

 

What’s more, at MICA, we are all passionate about our clients’ success. Collaboration. Active Listening. Partnership. Lasting Relationships. These are the key components of our proven processes that consistently lead to the successful placement of uniquely-qualified marketing talent with our clients. We know the discipline and the characteristics that make up top-performing marketers, and we know how to engage that talent. Every search. Every time.

 

Wherever you are in your talent acquisition strategy and/or search execution, the team at MICA can help. We want to share in your success story. Let's start a conversation.
