Score an Appraisal as a Manager

Steps for a manager to score an appraisal.

  • These steps begin on the My Appraisals screen. When it’s a manager's turn to score an employee's appraisal, the manager receives an email notification from Talent Manager with a URL link to open Talent. The manager can click that link to begin the process, then follow the steps below.
  • An appraisal must be in the Scoring phase of a workflow before the Score this Appraisal link displays.
  • If you are spending a long time scoring on Step 1, click Save at the bottom of the screen to ensure your data is saved, in case of system time-out or other session disruption. If you wish to return to scoring at a later time, click Finish Later.

To use the assistant, enter up to 3,000 characters in the Comment field and click the AI Assistant button to generate a draft, which appears in the AI Assistant for Scoring Comment dialog. You can edit the draft manually, or click Generate again and receive a different draft. You can also modify the prompt and try again, as many times as desired. When satisfied, click Accept Changes to transfer the text to the Comment field. Click Reset Prompt at any point to clear the prompt field. Generate and revise as often as needed. Click Close to return to the Comment field without using the AI suggestion.
