What Clients Are Saying
Hiring outcomes from founders and operators in the MIA ecosystem.
“It was great that every discussion with candidates immediately focused on getting things done, rather than just talking about ideas.”

“Because we were already connected to the MIA ecosystem, it was simpler to gauge if someone was a good fit before we even began the interview process.”

FAQs
Our clients frequently ask.
1. Is MIA Jobs a job board?
No. MIA Jobs is a managed hiring service built on top of the Marketing In Action ecosystem (MIA Academy and Community). We focus on fit, execution, and outcomes, not listings and volume.
2. What roles can I hire for?
Product marketing, growth marketing, GTM engineering, and AI marketing roles. Full-time, contract, fractional, and remote roles are all supported.
3. Who are the candidates in the MIA talent pool?
Operators from the MIA community, Academy, events, and referrals. They have real startup and SaaS experience, not just theoretical knowledge.
4. How do you screen candidates?
We screen based on real work. We look at shipped projects, tools used, GTM experience, and how candidates operate in real environments.
5. How long does the hiring process take?
It depends on the role, but most teams receive a shortlist within a few weeks once Managed Hiring starts.
6. Do I need to be part of the MIA community to hire?
No. Hiring through MIA Jobs does not require prior community membership.
7. Do you support remote and international hiring?
Yes. Many roles are remote-first, and talent spans Africa, the US, and Europe.
8. What happens if a hire doesn’t work out early?
We offer post-hire support to improve onboarding, alignment, and early performance, reducing the risk of early churn. If issues come up early, we support re-alignment first. If the role still isn’t a fit, we help with re-matching options through the MIA network as part of Post-Hire Support.
9. Do new hires get access to training or ongoing support?
RYes. Teams using Post-Hire Support can give new hires access to relevant MIA Academy workshops and learning sessions, along with exposure to experienced GTM operators inside the MIA ecosystem.
10. How is this different from using a recruiter?
Recruiters focus on CVs and placement. MIA Jobs focuses on execution fit, context, and early success.
11. What is the first step to get started?
Start with Hiring Discovery if you’re exploring a role, or Managed Hiring if you’re ready to hire.
