The MICA Talent Pool
Why the MICA Talent Pool?
The Northern Netherlands is teeming with talent. The challenge is to connect that talent with opportunities in the region and, in this way, retain creative professionals in the North. That is why the MICA Talent Pool was established.
Through the Talent Pool, we bring together talent and real-world experience. Students in creative programs at vocational and higher vocational schools apply and are selected based on their motivation, knowledge, and skills. Once accepted, they can be matched with paid, flexible assignments and part-time jobs at organizations in the region. We offer graduates development programs that help them get a strong start in the job market.
This gives companies access to young, local talent who bring a fresh perspective to real-world challenges. Students and graduates gain relevant work experience, build a network, and develop a portfolio. In this way, we create opportunities for talent and, together, strengthen the creative and innovative ecosystem of the Northern Netherlands.

Transition Communication Internships
Is your organization working on a change initiative related to, for example, energy, circularity, health, or digitalization? By bringing on a Transition Communication trainee, you’ll gain new knowledge, fresh perspectives, and strong communication skills.
From the very beginning, the trainee will work with you on your challenge: researching what motivates people, bringing together different perspectives, and developing and testing new communication interventions. This way, you’ll discover in practice which approach helps build support, influence behavior, and drive change.
Are you facing a transition challenge? We’d be happy to work with you to explore how a trainee can benefit your organization.
