Assessments
AssessmentsUnderstanding yourself is the greatest gift you can give yourself. CORA Corporations offers a wide range of personality and attribute assessments to help you understand where you are in your life and or career. These include:
The 360The 360 is one of the most popular multi-rater assessments in the world today. It asks for specific feedback from various people who know and work around you. These can include your direct reports, supervisors, vendors, family, friends, etc. The assessment can be custom-designed for specific uses. It is geared to help the individual become aware of how they are perceived and where their strengths and weaknesses are. The DISC ProfileThis assessment determines what your personality style is based on four basic types (Director, Influence, Supporter, and Conscientious) and how your mix of styles affects your life and those around you. Personality ProfileWe strongly recommend the Personality Profile, as it not only supplies you with the DISC information above but also gives you an in-depth look at who you are as a person and what others can expect from you. We find that many couples benefit greatly from this assessment, as it gives each partner insight into the temperament and emotional style of the other person. Current Employment AssessmentHow many times do you find yourself called in for a yearly evaluation, only to be told of mistakes or areas of challenge that you never knew were a problem before? This assessment is the same one used by many businesses when preparing for performance evaluations. By your taking the assessment, you will know where you should be focusing your improvement. It will impress your boss to know that you have taken the initiative to assess your own performance so that you can add more value as an employee. Pre-Employment AssessmentsThe ACL Assessment is benchmarked against the general type of job that you are looking for (middle manager, accountant, software designer, etc.). The assessment performs an average of 12,000 calculations from your answers and produces a detailed report on how you would fit in that type of position. It also identifies your personality style, by means of a DISC profile, as well as identifies for you prospective employer what motivates you as an employee. Add the ACL report to your resume and see the difference! Sales AptitudeCORA Corporation offers a unique Sales Aptitude assessment that will not only help you determine what type of salesperson you are, but also where you would best fit in a sales organization. The assessment focuses on qualifying, presentation, overcoming objections, cold calling, telemarketing, and closing skills. The Sales Aptitude also assesses and scores you on assertiveness, experience, ethics in sales, aptitude for outside sales, and aptitude for inside/retail sales. Employment Assistance ProfileThe Employment Assistance Profile is designed for the individual who is preparing for an interview but is unsure how their various traits and personality styles will be seen by an interviewer. This assessment helps jobseekers realize their strengths and weaknesses prior to the job application process. It also tells you what points you should focus on and how to deal with certain questions that an interviewer may ask. This is a powerful tool when used in combination with either the ACL Assessment or the Sales Aptitude test. Business Partner ProfileThe Business Partner Profile by professionals looking for a partner or high-level associate. Law firms, physicians offices, and entrepreneurs who are looking to fill the various C-Suite positions find this assessment invaluable. This assessment identifies the type of person who will work best in the position and matches strengths and weaknesses so that there is an even level of leadership and responsibility across the team. Campbell Interest and Skill SurveyThe Campbell Interest and Skill Survey (CISS) includes interest scales that help assess an individual’s interest in occupational areas and comparisons to people who are successfully employed in those fields. The CISS instrument goes beyond traditional inventories by adding parallel skill scales that present an estimate of the individual’s confidence in his or her ability to perform various occupational activities. Together, the two types of scales provide more comprehensive and richer data than interest scores alone. Leadership and Management InventoriesCORA Corporation offers a wide variety of leadership and management inventories that are used for measuring various leadership and supervisory skills and values. Please contact us for more details. Uniquely You (a “spiritual gifts” assessment)Uniquely You is a spiritual gifts assessment like no other, in that it not only identifies your gifts but offers guidance in putting those gifts to use. The assessment also identifies your personality through the DISC process and offers scriptural help particular to each of the identified gifts and personality types.

Training and Workshops [ return to top ]
Resume or personnel file building workshopsToday’s employment market is more competitive than ever. Not only are more people graduating each year, but a great number of the baby boomer generation are retiring from one position and looking to re-enter the job market. Because of this, having a diversified resume that demonstrates all of your additional training and skill sets is paramount to helping you land your ideal position. This is also true for those already employed who aspire to a promotion or who would like the establish their increased value to the business (An important issue when raise time comes around!) The resume of today needs to be far more than it ever has in the past. You can build a killer resume or personnel file by including two sets of specialized information that will make you stand out: skill sets and assessments. #1 - Skill SetsSkills differ from education in that they are specific areas of knowledge or action that are required to perform the desired actions. One of the most important skill set areas are the “soft skills,” which include such areas as communication, conflict management, time management, networking, etc. CORA Corporation can help you build your resume by offering one-on-one or teleclass training in a great variety of “soft skill” programs. Below is a partial list of the programs that we offer. If you’re looking for something special, just drop us an e-mail. Once you have completed the program (each session runs approximately 2 ½ hours), you will receive a certificate of completion as well as a document detailing the various skills that you have received instruction in so that list your training on your resume or highlight it during your job interview. Our certified soft skill programs include:
#2 - Resume-Building AssessmentsThe number-one reason that businesses and employees fail each other is that their values don’t match. For this reason, more than 60% of all business today will require an assessment of some kind to see whether the candidate matches the benchmark for the specific job and if their personal style and personality are a good match for the company. Have you ever applied for a position that you knew you were perfect for but you didn’t even get a call back? CORA can help improve your chances of landing that position with two unique and inexpensive tools that can boost your resume:
For sales people, CORA offers a unique Sales Aptitude Assessment that will not only help you determine what type of salesperson you are, but also where you would best fit in a sales organization. The assessment focuses on qualifying, presentation, overcoming objections, cold calling, telemarketing, and closing skills. The Sales Aptitude also assesses and scores you on assertiveness, experience, ethics in sales, aptitude for outside sales, and aptitude for inside/retail sales.
