Pre-Employment

Every job has a set of optimum characteristics, but not every person has what the job requires. By assessing the job and the candidates, you increase your ability to make consistently better hiring decisions.

Pre-employment Assessments: Tools to Select the Right Person for the Job.

Data Dome offers a wide variety of tools for assessment of behaviors, soft skills, motivations, capabilities, personality characteristics, hard skills, competencies, attitudes and abilities.

The greater the mismatch between a person's abilities and behaviors and the requirements of the job, the more likely that poor performance, mistakes, accidents, and turnover will occur. This also occurs when individuals are promoted into the “wrong” job. By assessing both the job itself and the candidates, you increase your information and objectivity to produce better decisions and results.

The tools to answer these critical hiring questions:

• Does the person have the basic ability to do the job?
• Will the person do the job and be satisfied?
• How will the person handle stress, work pace and working with other people?
• Why will they do the job and will they be satisfied?
• How will they perform with tight schedules or upset customers?
• Will they share and support the values of your organization?

Coaching & Developmental

Personal development and team development are essential factors for success. Personal profiles can help employees to identify their strengths and weaknesses, while team profiles address the effectiveness and balance of skills among your teams.

Development and Coaching Tools

Personal Development Profiles - Career development today emphasizes individual ownership and continuous development of skills and capabilities -- regardless of one's stage, position or aspirations. You can begin by learning more about yourself. Your work effectiveness is influenced by many factors, such as your personality, skills and capabilities, values, and background.

Through self-assessment and surveying of those with whom you work, we can help you to assess:

• Behavioral preferences
• Soft skills
• Motivations
• Attributes
• Personality characteristics
• Hard skills
• Competencies
• Attitudes
• Abilities

We all have strengths and weaknesses. The value of this information is to help you to recognize both, and to aid you in developing strategies to capitalize on your strengths and minimize/compensate for your weaknesses. We help you consider the overall picture and how your assessment and survey results fit with your job, career and personal expectations.

Team Development Profiles - Team Development starts with team assessment.

• Who brings what to the table?
• Do all team members understand their respective roles?

• Save time
• Increase productivity
• Boost morale
• Resolve conflicts

Understanding every members' role, purpose, optimum behaviors and motivations increases our knowledge of how to better work with and fit into our team.

Employee & Customer Surveys

Are you prepared for the undiluted truth? Data Dome specializes in getting employees and customers to share what they are really thinking. The key is anonymity. The value is immeasurable

Surveys can help you answer questions about your employees and your working environment:

• Why is your talent leaving?
• Is your ignorance or your employees’ true feelings ruining your company?
• How do good customers feel about you? Will they buy again?
• Would you skip an annual medical checkup?
• Are corporate cancers growing?
