Hi Jennifer, I liked your video! I don't get a performance review because I'm a receptionist working as an employee; for a third-party agency. However, I do want to become a productive Administrator Assistant. I'm working on my Bachelor's degree in Business Management. Hopefully, I'll be able to move on and become a full-time employee for a potential employer with a reputable firm. Nevertheless, I found the five pointers you've shared valuable for the future and the information useful for a performance review I will have in the future.
@Dillon Ivany if you're not longer at the company as a direct result, reputation rehab is much more difficult. Most companies when you exit will categorize you as rehireable or not, and if a manager or HR person decided on not there may not be a path back. I suggest focusing forward. What did you love about the company? What values are very important to you? Then focus on your search for your next dream job to the next one. And choose to focus on the positive now and in your next job. This might be a step up opportunity in your career - like to land in a more positive place and with a refreshed focus on your awesomeness at work rather than what goes on around you.
1-Gather data: job description, success metrics, the impact of your work, qualitative data like testimonials 2-Communication: Deliver the data to HR (makes their lives easier), only share facts 3-Self-evaluation: Goals you want to reach and skills you want to improve on 4-Set a goal for the performance meeting: Perfect time to talk about promotions, raises, bonus, education 5-Get into the right mindset
You guys get it so hard in USA. The threat of being dismissed from day to day must create enormous pressure. This is why you try so hard during your reviews. Bosses should receive performance review from their employees too.
If they annoy me enough, I give it to them and put it in writing whether they like it or not. The argument to the higher ups is whether they'd prefer to read it in an email or on glassdoor.
Kind of depends on the employer. With mine, we have performance reviews but they’re more of a formality. You’d have to do something really stupid in order to get yourself fired. That being said, although you probably won’t get fired for missing them here and there, you still have to meet your goals and exceed them where possible. You don’t want to be the only one that consistently doesn’t. Again, it depends on the company.
Exactly! These reviews are such reverse psychology and whoever imposed this theory has trained so many people in the art of bashing people psyche. its like hey.... tell us how great you are and how you do your job well...then well tell you how bad you are and how your job has made me look bad! But we cant be honest about how we feel we are being treated by the mgmt or by our co-worker. its quite a game.
Hi, I watched your video before my performance review today and I KILLED IT thanks to your tips! It was my first year at a corporate real estate firm and your advice seriously helped me so much. Thank you!
What kind of questions were you asked? I also work in a real estate company and I have my performance review coming up this morning. Tips would be appreciated
It would be my second performance review next year and I’m trying to make a list early on of my accomplishments as they come so that I’m prepared and not waiting till the week I have to do my self evaluation to be scrambling. Very few people I think at my job do the self evaluation but I love doing mine because it’s the only time I can actually say everything I’ve done. My manager even reworded what I said lol. I chose “exceeds expectations” instead of outstanding because it was my first year. Next year I’m aiming for “outstanding” 😊 A mistake I made was being extremely nervous during the zoom call with 5 of my supervisors about it. I wish I could of asked what I can do to improve. Next time though if I don’t get that outstanding 👍🏼
I have a performance review next week... in English ( I am french...) which increases the difficulty of this exercise for me!! Thank you for your tips , really helpful
@@JenniferBrick not very well. Feedback was great. But I had been preparing for weeks... and one of my manager called me 10 min before to tell me what I needed to say. It made me completely panic. All I had prepared was "un-prepared" and I disregarded what I had in mind and at heart to follow my managers lead. On top of that, when I am not prepared, English doesn't come very easy to me... and I did not manage to express anything very well. I have been feeling very bad since then. I need to work on my confidence... I will check your video on how to feel confident... :-(
@@Chtarby I'm sorry it didn't go well. I totally understand how flustering it can be when you don't feel like you're ready for the conversation you're having, even as a native speaker. One thing I've learned to do is explain that I need to process things; you can do this too, and you can even say you need a moment to think through a response or something you want to say because of the fact you have to translate it first in your head. Most people are really understanding. I know it's hard when you're going through this, but this is going to make you strong and more confident in the future. You obviously care and are proactive, and these qualities will help you rise. I''m here if you ever need a pep talk.
How can you tell if. you are at a company where the review sort of does not matter and they will give you the same raise or non at all? Are there signs?
When asking for a raise or a salary match from a prior position how do you face this? I took a major paycut leaving my previous job for my current job to be in a better environment and advance my career however the paycut is hurting more than expected.
My manager just told me I have a performance review coming up soon & she’ll give me some papers tomorrow that I can take home & fill out. I didn’t even know what she was talking about but I said okay. I work at a dental office as a receptionist. what do u think this will entail? (I did watch the video lol)
Them making excuse to have an ego trip. My advice and smile and nod. If they annoy you, ask them if they've had any training as a receptionist and casually mention a competition might be hiring and get up and go.
@@JenniferBrick so, we have to postponed our review on Monday. I told my manager through text (as we used it all the time even with light official issue)" Sir, I think now is a good time visiting dealers from other districts. What do you think?" (Only that, stupid me, I know 🤣) He replied, "Sure, Pl start visiting". Only that. But good thing is, I still have the performance review coming next week. So, maybe I can explain it more seriously then 😂. Im trying to do more work hoping for a big raise. The new channel I propose to visit is 150km away from my location.
My performance reviews literally don't matter. I work for idiots. We have no metrics, and your performance score doesn't matter in respect to pay. It's all just a BS waste of time because someone read some BS book on "how to manage," and the book said these stupid reviews are required.
1.) If you are a woman, find a high value man and do what you have to. Marry him, then leave the company. Isn't that the game for women? If you are a man, then you're screwed for the rest of your life.
Yes, DIYed eyelashes are not my forte, career advice is. I want you to sit with a question: does your comment bring positivity to this community or negativity?
Do you set goals for your performance review meeting?

Hie.May you please do a bad performance review !!!

all of these are useless - IMO if you want a raise and/or promotion. just go find a better job somewhere else and negotiate hard on that offer

Anytime my friend!
Amazing and spot-on advice!
So glad you found this helpful (and accurate haha)!
I nailed my review thanks!
Yay. Congrats!!
Cuanto wey ?

Very useful, thank you
So glad it helped!
Great content! It was a huge help to watch this :) thanks
I am ready!
I’m READY!
You got this friend!
@@JenniferBrick do you talk about handling Bullies in the workplace?
This video makes the dangerous assumption that the job appraisal will be fair.
Please do a video defining the good and bad performance review.
IM READY!
I dont get it, the company cab sack you if they need to save money…
Lol im burnt out and wrote a haiku into mine 😂
My manager just told me I have a performance review coming up soon & she’ll give me some papers tomorrow that I can take home & fill out. I didn’t even know what she was talking about but I said okay. I work at a dental office as a receptionist. what do u think this will entail? (I did watch the video lol)

New Subscriber here. ❤️
Voice is very low. Tried maximum sound still the same. Please check this.
What performance review? 😂 Been at my job for 2 years and haven’t had one yet.
What job description? I’m serious. Despite asking for one for months, I’ve never received one.
It's pronounced "data"
Hard to hear clearly.
Im a fast talker. You can slow down the playback or turn on captions, I know those two things help people who aren't used to my warp speed speech 😀
I have performance review today 😂
Good luck my friend!

‘Dhata”...that’s how I pronounce it.
Its data
I say Day-ta
I feel like that's the right way... until I say database. That flips it on its head in my world.
This isn't very helpful. It's far too generic and doesn't incliude examples of how to word stuff etc.
Its data.
dah-tuh
I agree with you... but I constantly say day-tuh.
Yuh

I agree with you 50% of the time. The other 50% I find myself say day-ta.
Slay my career no thank you. Why would you want to kill my career?
Lol
These are people who believe they are born to serve their corporate overlords.

@@JenniferBrick just wanna drop a two cents of mine that your lashes looks great! And thanks for the video, I'm having my first review ever tomorrow 🙏
