ASSESSMENT

Job Readiness Assessment© (JRA)JRA Assessment Areas

The JRA™ is a comprehensive online assessment of the savvy knowledge, skills and motivation necessary to gain and maintain employment regardless of age, education or experience. It can be used as a pre/post-test for benchmarking training results and as a stand alone tool for coaching personal development. The 20-minute process covers seven crucial areas of job readiness preparation (see graphic).

The JRA process effectively and efficiently identifies and qualifies job barriers and weaker performance areas while reinforcing areas of personal strength and skills necessary for workplace success. Used since 1997 with diverse populations, the JRA creates the necessary angst for learning subject matter all too often plagued by the four most dangerous words in our vocabulary, “I already know that.” Uniquely designed as the first step for any job coaching scenario, the JRA quickly becomes the go-to tool for establishing a baseline of services.

Showcasing additional value in ease-of-use for facilitators, the dashboard-driven JRA homepage provides at-a-glance real-time scoring and PDF report options for both a long report to use for coaching, and a short report for case management files. The optional integrated Mock Interview module reviews commonly asked questions and outputs a customizable 9-page report.
