As you think about your employees’ performance reviews, here are some tips and tools that will benefit you and your direct reports.
Self-Appraisal E-Form
Encourage your direct reports to use and submit the Self-Appraisal E-Form that is available on the Forms page of the Human Resources website. UC-Berkeley also provides several questions that employees may find useful when completing this form:
-
What were your accomplishments for the year? (ex.: Goals and/or projects completed.)
-
Which professional development courses did you complete that were applicable to your job (i.e. HRD training, etc.)?
-
What could you have done better?
-
Do you understand what is expected of you?
-
Are performance standards and work rules clear?
-
What training or professional development do you need?
-
Would you like to see your responsibilities change? How? Why?
-
What career goals do you have? What do you need to attain those goals?
-
How are relationships going with your co-workers?
-
What could your supervisor do to help you in better performing your job?
Second-Level Signature
The performance review form must be signed by both the supervisor and the second-level supervisor prior to conducting the review. In chronological order:
-
First, the form will be completed and signed by the supervisor;
-
It will then be approved by the second-level supervisor, and,
-
Then the supervisor reviews the form with the employee.
Face-to-Face Interviews
At Auburn University, the performance review meeting must also be conducted “face-to-face.” We encourage you to review the “Good to Know!” from June 7, 2017, for several tips on conducting performance review meetings.
