CFIlythics ® Model

The scientifically model behind Marcel's matching algorithm

What is the

CFIlythics ® Model?

The CFIlythics (Culture Fit Index) model is a scientifically informed framework that helps determine a candidate's compatibility with an organization's culture. This model was developed in collaboration with
Sapience, a spin-off from VUB (Vrije Universiteit Brussel).

The 7 CFIlythics ® Dimensions

Leadership: The leadership style and approach within the organization, including decision-making processes and authority distribution.
Communication: How information flows throughout the organization, including transparency, frequency, and communication channels.
Collaboration: The emphasis on teamwork, cross-functional cooperation, and collective problem-solving.
Innovation: Approach to new ideas, change initiatives, and creative solutions within the organization.
Engagement: How organizations foster employee motivation, recognition, and commitment to the company's mission.
Work Balance: The expectations around working hours, flexibility, and separation between work and private life.
Inclusion and Sustainability: Focus on diversity, equal opportunities, and environmental and social responsibility.

How does the CFIlythics ® Model work

Marcel integrates seamlessly into your existing recruitment process, helping you find candidates who truly fit your company's culture.

Company Culture Profiling

Companies complete the CFIlythics ® questionnaire to establish their cultural profile. For more accuracy, current employees can also take the assessment, with results averaged to create a more representative profile.

Candidate Assessment

Through a conversational WhatsApp interface, Marcel guides candidates through the same CFIlythics ® questionnaire, making the process engaging and convenient.

Algorithm Calculation

Our sophisticated algorithm analyzes multiple dimensions of fit between the candidate and company profiles, assigning different weights to various factors based on predictive importance.

Percentage Match

The system generates a percentage score representing the overall culture fit, with detailed breakdowns available for each dimension.

The CFIlythics ® Scoring Model

The CFIlythics ® Model evaluates culture fit based on seven different dimensions that represent critical aspects of workplace culture and individual preferences. Marcel uses this model to match candidates and companies based on these dimensions. The model is designed to extend the questionnaire for dimensions that are more important to a candidate, providing more in-depth results which are weighted more heavily in the final matching outcome.
