Hiring Reliability Index™:
One number that tells you if your mandate will close.
Most recruiting teams measure time-to-fill after a search stalls. The Hiring Reliability Index™ measures system health before it stalls — so you can intervene while recovery is still possible.
The Metric
A hiring system needs a health score.
In infrastructure, you don’t wait for a server to go down before checking its health. You monitor CPU load, memory pressure, error rates, and response latency — continuously. You get a health score. You act on early signals.
The Hiring Reliability Index™ applies the same logic to mandate management. It’s a composite real-time score — 0 to 100 — that tells you, for every active search, how likely it is to close on time and at quality.
A mandate with an HRI of 72 last Tuesday had an HRI of 51 this Tuesday. That’s a 21-point drop in seven days. That is recoverable — if you see it now.
Score Ranges
What your HRI score means.
The index compresses multiple operational signals into a single number. Not to oversimplify — but because decision speed matters more than signal richness when a mandate is degrading.
70–100: Healthy
Mandate is on track. Pipeline velocity is normal. Outreach response above threshold. Recruiter load within SLO. No intervention required — system is performing.
50–69: At Risk
One or more signals are degrading. Early intervention window is open. Majhi OS surfaces the specific signal causing the drop and recommends a targeted recovery action.
Below 50: Critical
Multiple signals have breached threshold. Mandate is on a stall trajectory. Autonomous recovery sequence initiates. Escalation to hiring manager is triggered.
Signal Inputs
Five signals feed the index.
The HRI is not a single metric relabelled. It’s a weighted composite of five operational signals, each of which Majhi OS monitors in real time across every active mandate.
Pipeline Velocity
How fast candidates move through each stage. Deceleration predicts stall before the stall is visible in a status report.
Outreach Response Rate
Current reply rate vs. 30-day baseline. Decay beyond threshold is the leading indicator of a dead pipeline.
Recruiter Load Factor
Active mandates vs. capacity ceiling. Overloaded recruiters produce systematic quality decline before it appears in output metrics.
Shortlist Approval Rate
Percentage of presented candidates that advance. Below-threshold rates signal intake misalignment before the search wastes another six weeks.
Close Velocity
Time from final-round feedback to offer decision. Delay here is almost always a hiring manager bottleneck — which the system flags and escalates.
Audit Coverage
Percentage of candidate decisions with documented rationale. Below 70% means recovery is harder because the system can’t learn what failed.
Proof
What the index predicts.
These are not aspirational benchmarks. They are operational outcomes from mandates where Majhi OS’s HRI-driven recovery sequences were applied.
