Multiple Evaluations

If multiple people evaluate an employee or group of employees, each evaluation might include different competencies and competency ratings.

To control which evaluations are used in match and gap analyses, you define match evaluation types. For example, you might include only evaluations with the status of Approved/Official.

To understand how the system performs a match analysis with multiple evaluations, consider the following example:

If you use manager and peer evaluations for match analysis, the system calculates the average rating based on the three evaluations: manager, peer 1, and peer 2.

The following table shows the results if this employee is compared with the HR specialist position. The Employee Match column describes the icon that appears for the particular scenario.

The total points value for the HR Specialist position is 19 (the sum of the values in the points assigned column). The employee earns the points for a competency when their rating meets or exceeds the required rating for the position being evaluated. In this case, the employee met or exceeded the required rating for two competencies. The combined point value for those two competencies is 8. Therefore, the employee's total points for evaluation against the HR Specialist position is 8.
