How often do you give your recruits an appraisal? May be six monthly or annually? That’s what a majority of the organizations do.

Well, these time frames for appraisals are perhaps good enough for an old employee. But, don’t you think a new recruit will be lost without anyone giving him suggestions as to where and how to improve and understanding from him what sort of training or guidance he requires for his new role?

If you sit with him after 6 months or a year, precious time and productivity are lost because you didn’t know the employee needed training, assistance and guidance.

A 30 day time frame (from the date of joining) is better to touch base with new recruits to find out if they understand their work responsibilities, are comfortable with the company culture and whether they align with your vision.

Again, after 90 days from the date of their joining, make your new hires sit across the table and ask them what they need and expect from the company. Remember, it’s not a feedback session, but a one on one to understand employees’ needs, set your expectations and stay engaged with them.

If you want your new recruits to integrate into their role and company role quickly and come to speed with the current level of productivity, try the 30-day and a 90-day review.
