Methodology behind Compa Skills

Verified offers

Compa powers its Skills product by continuously extracting job descriptions from job posts linked to verified offers within its “give-to-get” market data platform.

Skill ontologies

Using industry-leading third-party skills ontologies, Compa extracts skills from job descriptions. The extracted skills are analyzed through Compa’s proprietary software SkillGuard.

SkillGuard examines the context of each skill to ensure it aligns with the job responsibilities outlined in the job description.

Skills translation

Compa translates skills into each customer’s preferred ontology, allowing comp teams to gather market intelligence in the same “language” as their HCM system.
