Stop Guessing. Start Leading.
The Recruitment Maturity Index™ from MXA Talent Solutions
A Data-Backed Survey Built to Elevate Your Recruitment Function Without the Consulting Overhead
The RMI was created out of a very real frustration.
As a global head of Talent Acquisition, our founder, Liza, kept hearing the same questions from senior leadership:
“What’s our strategy?” “Where are we falling short?” “What do we need to do differently?”
In response, she turned to every model and maturity framework available. But what she discovered was disappointing. Most options were not designed for recruitment.
They were complex HR assessments, developed by major consulting firms, and came with hefty price tags. Worst of all, they failed to provide actionable insight or clear direction.
- They did not tell her what needed to change.
- They did not reflect stakeholder perception.
- They did not help her build a stronger, more strategic function.

That was the spark that led to the creation of the
Recruitment Maturity Index.
For most Talent Acquisition leaders, feedback is not the problem. Clarity is.
Recruitment is often misunderstood within the organization. Opinions are everywhere, but consistent, actionable data is hard to come by.
TA teams are frequently blamed when things go wrong, even when the real issue is poor alignment or lack of resources.
The tools available do not help.
- They are built for broad HR use cases, not recruitment.
- They include pages of irrelevant metrics and generic analysis.
- They still leave you without a clear answer to the question, “What should we do next?”
This is where the Recruitment Maturity Index becomes essential.
The Recruitment Maturity Index from MXA Talent Solutions is not your typical model or theoretical framework.
RMI is a focused diagnostic survey created specifically for internal Talent Acquisition functions.
Through a short but targeted survey, we collect feedback from key stakeholders across the business (HR leaders, hiring managers, executive teams) and assess your recruiting maturity across five essential pillars.
This gives you a true snapshot of where your function stands and where your opportunities lie.
You will be able to:
- See where your team is adding value and where it is misunderstood
- Identify communication gaps and misaligned priorities
- Build a strategy that reflects both reality and ambition
It is the tool we wish had existed when we were in your shoes.
