Self Eval at Work

January 23rd, 2013 at 03:22 pm

I work for a company that replaces the modern evaluations to a more humane process. The first step is for the employee to fill out a form listing accomplishments, disappointment for not completing something, and where I want to be in two/five years. I hate filling out this form. I don't know where I want to be in two years let alone five years. I don't have any work related goals. My job is kind of on auto pilot and I like it that way.

Anyway...I have to fill this form out and have a meeting with my boss where I turn in the form. I am not looking forward to it.

    I hate those forms, too.

    Those are hard, but I think they are important to reflect and see what you have done well...toot your own horn in case your boss doesn't know it. Maybe there is a process or program that could help you be more efficient in your work, or help coworkers.

    I hope it goes well!

    Hope it all goes well for you! We too have to do a self eval, and our office manager has 1 person from each other department do one us, and she does one...ugh! She rotates who does who in each department from year to year, so you never know who is doing it on you. I think it can be a good thing to do a self eval, but I have been at my job 14 years, and I get tired of it year after year, doing the same form.

    I know what you mean! This year I wanted to just write "I'm doing my best and I'm reasonably happy with my job the way it is." Some years I don't have a big strategic vision, and it's hard to fake it. I'm not a good BSer, though I've tried to get better at it because it seems to benefit you in the corporate world.

    Yeah, I have to fill out the same form before the end of the month. It's ridiculous.
