Recruitment across Malaysia.
MCI Malaysia places permanent, temporary and contract staff for employers in Malaysia, including operational, professional and senior executive roles. It is the Malaysian arm of MCI Group of Companies, with two offices in Kuala Lumpur.
About MCI Malaysia.
MCI Malaysia runs the group's recruitment in Malaysia from Kuala Lumpur, for employers hiring locally and for employers hiring across the Causeway.
Candidates are matched and screened to the same standards as in Singapore, in line with Malaysian regulations.
From two offices in Kuala Lumpur, MCI Malaysia handles both permanent recruitment and contract staffing for industrial and commercial employers. Its consultants recruit in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, Penang, Johor and other states.
MCI Malaysia aims to put forward only candidates who are well suited to the role. Candidates are screened against the actual requirements of the role rather than against keywords, and each search starts with candidates who have already been screened rather than with a new job advertisement.
