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.

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.

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.

Contingency Search

MICA’s contingency or “pay-per-hire” search is used less frequently and is appropriate for lower-level roles, that are less urgent.  We may also apply this approach when you are hiring multiple individuals for the same role on an on-going basis. We leverage our broad candidate networks and invest heavily in advertising to attract the largest possible number of qualified candidates who meet your search criteria.

In all cases, MICA conducts the initial screening process, presents the candidate profiles, and then manages the entire interview process between the candidates and your hiring team, including the job offer and negotiation.

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.

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.
