What is the Opportunity Fit Score?

The Opportunity Fit Score evaluates five dimensions of bidirectional fit between a candidate and a role: challenge alignment, career trajectory alignment, compensation structure alignment, company stage alignment, and personal situation alignment. It assesses not just whether the candidate is right for the role, but whether the role is right for the candidate.

Why does bidirectional fit affect offer acceptance rates?

Candidates who are evaluated only for company fit — not for whether the opportunity is genuinely right for them — sometimes accept offers for reasons of convenience rather than genuine commitment. Majhi Group's bidirectional fit assessment produces candidates who are genuinely excited about the specific opportunity, which is why our offer acceptance rate exceeds 90%.

Why Bidirectional Fit Matters

Executive hiring is typically evaluated from one direction: is this candidate right for us? The more important and less commonly asked question is: is this opportunity right for this candidate? Executives who accept roles that do not align with their genuine motivations, career trajectory, or personal situation are disengagement risks regardless of their competency. High offer acceptance rates and low early exit rates require genuine bidirectional fit.

The Opportunity Fit Score Dimensions

The Opportunity Fit Score evaluates five dimensions of candidate-opportunity alignment: challenge alignment (does this role offer the specific challenge this candidate is genuinely seeking?), career trajectory alignment (does this role advance or detour from where they are genuinely going?), compensation structure alignment (does the offer structure match what they actually value — cash, equity, or both?), company stage alignment (is this company at the stage where they do their best work?), and personal situation alignment (is their life situation compatible with what this role will actually demand?).

How the Score Is Assessed

The Opportunity Fit Score is assessed through structured conversation with every candidate Majhi Group advances — not as a candidate screening tool but as a candidate engagement tool. Understanding genuine motivations enables more effective candidate engagement, more honest communication about what the role will require, and a better-calibrated offer process. Candidates who score well across all five dimensions are genuinely committed to the opportunity — not just accepting an offer.

The Outcome: Higher Acceptance and Lower Attrition

Majhi Group's 90%+ offer acceptance rate reflects the effectiveness of bidirectional fit assessment. Candidates who understand and genuinely want the opportunity accept offers at high rates. They also stay — because the decision was informed and genuine, not a placeholder while they continued looking. Bidirectional fit assessment is an investment in the quality and durability of every placement.
