The Talent cycle assessments interface provides a systematic way to assess employees quickly based on the grading perspectives in a specific cycle.
Talent Visibility: The Talent module is only available to users that have been assigned assessment responsibilities within a Talent cycle and HR Admins.
Given a user is in a Grading Group for a talent cycle and is not an HR Admin, when that user is viewing the Talent module (Assess tab or 9 box tab), their visibility will be limited to users in their hierarchy (direct reports and indirect reports).
Accessing
- Navigate to Talent > Assess.
- Select from the list of available Talent cycles to begin assessing or review.
Making Assessments
- Select Employee: To begin making assessments select an employee from the list of employees located on the left side of the Talent assess interface.
- View Employee Assessment Details: The employee will display as selected within the employee list and their assessment options will load on the right side of the interface.

Note: You may make multiple assessments for the same employee. Each assessment is treated a s separate submission and is captured in the list of historical grades and comments for each grading perspective.
