Job Level 1 Evaluation Questions

Purpose

To outline self-evaluation for Level 1: an internship or junior position.

Scope

Covers self-evaluation questions for job level 1, for both general criteria and technical (guild) tracks.

Professional Development

Regularly reviews other team members’ work, and asks questions about it (code reviews, XD links, shared videos, stage sites)
You are dependable. The team feels they can rely on you do follow through with things. You document tasks (Trello usually) and follow up on them.
Tries to solve problems yourself. But then, asks questions.

Communications

Makes meetings on time, checks both email and slack daily, and notifies of absence in advance (and follows communications charter)
Often refers to the operations manual, and asks questions about it when something is unclear or could be improved.
Makes consistent improvement of any size to the systems around you (flag outdated content from the ops manual, small refactors such as renaming a variable for clarity, make a small design or usability improvement).
Shows gratitude to the team (for example, mention them in the #thanks channel) or thank them on other channels.
Shares work (screenshots, staging links, XD links, code snippets) with the team and clients in your client- and guild- channels, because seeing great work raises the bar for everyone and is very motivating.

Project Management

Speaks up, and asks questions during meetings, because you shouldn’t be in a meeting if you don’t contribute.
Checks OKRs mid-month, and asks for help.

Makes an effort to understand and interact with end users. For example, is present in discovery meetings, user interviews, usability sessions.
Identifies personas using each UI and how, and tests their user stories (UATs) when developing user interfaces (on devices they use). Test your work!
