What Compono Hire is
Compono Hire is a web-based applicant tracking and recruitment system for organisations hiring at volume. It profiles candidates against organisational culture and top performers, then ranks them by skills, qualifications, experience, culture alignment, work motivation and behavioural profile. Hiring teams can distribute vacancies to multiple job boards and sourcing channels, search pre-profiled candidates, and maintain an internal talent pool for future roles. Pipeline tools cover candidate tracking, tagging and task management, with visibility into sourcing performance and pipeline health. Candidates may receive personalised work personality insights after applying.
Interview coordination includes candidate self-scheduling, panel scheduling, two-way calendar sync and integrated video interviews. Listed assessment methods are online education, online testing and interactive scenario-based learning. The system also supports development plans, competency gap analysis and role competency mapping. Compono says single sign-on can be configured for each customer's identity provider and security requirements. It identifies ISO 27001 information security and ISO 9001 quality certifications, and says its Customer Success Team handles current-customer enquiries. Hire is aimed at organisations with 60 to 1,000 employees hiring for fit at volume. It is paid, with pricing on request; employer pricing is indicative, excludes GST, and excludes separately scoped onboarding and customer success packages.
