Use this function to manage and keep track of the professional interviews conducted for a given employee.

The interview records can be created manually or automatically by validating an interview campaign (GESCEV function).

Screen management

Duplication principle

You can duplicate an interview record to recover useful information from an interview and transfer it to another without having to enter this information again.

  • You can manually duplicate interview records directly from this function. In that case, you need to modify at least the interview date.
  • Likewise, the interview records can be duplicated automatically when generating a new interview campaign.

In both cases, the behaviors encountered on interview records are as follows:

  • The validation cycle of the new record is 'In progress', regardless of the initial validation cycle ('In progress', 'Validated by N+1', 'Validated by N+2').
  • Data from the General tab are kept.
  • On the Performance tab, the objectives from the previous interview record are recovered.
  • Data from the Skills tab are not kept. They must be reinitialized.
  • On the Training tab, the completed training courses match those of the evaluation period.
  • Data from the New objectives tab are not kept.
  • On the Comments tab, the comments from the previous interview record are recovered and displayed in the Previous interview reviewer and Employee previous interview fields (these fields cannot be accessed and therefore cannot be modified). Comments for the new evaluation can be entered in the Reviewer and Employee fields.

Workflow Rules

After the first validation (N+1) is carried out using this function, an email is sent to the reviewer N+2. This message contains the following information:

  • Name of the reviewer N+1
  • Name of the employee being evaluated
  • Date of the evaluation

The workflow rule is EVACPC and the associated data model is EVACPC.

Header

Presentation

The header contains the employee identification and the dates of the evaluated period.

Upon manual creation, you can specify whether this interview is an annual interview or another type of interview (interview types are managed in the miscellaneous table no. 464 - Interview type).

Tab Performance

Presentation

Use this tab to view and enter the objectives defined for the period to be evaluated.

 

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

Block number 1

If you want this field to automatically display the scale code for the evaluation, you need to specify this code in the EVASCA - Default scale general parameter (TC chapter, CAR group). It is possible to define the scale code by folder/company for the required evaluation. The initialized code of the evaluation scale can still be modified.
If no parameter value is specified, no scale code is initialized. It is therefore recommended to enter a value for the parameter so as not to leave this field blank after the interviews are generated.

Grid Performance

  • Objective (field EVAOBJ)

Free text field where you can describe the objective (maximum of 250 characters).

  • Evaluation criteria (field EVACRIT)

Free text field where you can specify the evaluation criteria (maximum of 250 characters).

  • Level (field EVALEVOBJ)

Use this field to specify whether the objective has been reached or not on a level scale.

  • Reference (field EVALEVREF)

Tab Skills

Presentation

Use this tab to:

  • View the skills required for the employee's position or standard job
  • View the validated skills
  • Update the validated levels of the skills

For each skill, you can view the descriptions of the scale levels and skill levels: click the Actions icon located at the beginning of each line in the tables, then click Level scale or Skill.

"Requested skills" section

To populate the table with the requested skills (when the table is empty upon record creation), use the Init skills action(available from the Actions icon located at the beginning of each line in the table).

The requested skills match the skills defined for the standard job or position the employee is associated with.

You cannot modify or delete requested skills originating from the initialization, nor can you add requested skills.

Each skill is associated with a reference scale and a level. The inheritance (folder, group, branch, standard job or position) is also specified.

SEEREFERTTO See the guidelines for the standard jobs and positions.

Validated skills section

The skills and levels originate from the employee's career record. They feature the skills required for the position or standard job, and validated for the employee.

Upon loading, those skills that are not validated yet for this employee (not on the career record) but that are required for the position or the job, are preloaded in the skill table. In that case, the skill displays an 'Initial' source and the level matches the level required for the job.

Creation of line(s)

You may need to:

  • Create lines for the first time (for example, in the case of an employee who has never been evaluated)
  • Add lines if the employee has already been evaluated but for another position, or if new skills are required for their current position or standard job

To populate the table with the validated skills, use the Init skills action(available from the Actions icon located at the beginning of each line in the table).

Likewise, skills to be validated can be loaded automatically into this table using the interview generation carried out from any interview campaign (Generation button in the Interview campaigns (GESCEV function)). In this case, the lines of the skills to be validated are created, but they are only prepopulated, in other words, skills are only preloaded into the table (and not validated yet). More precisely:

  • Only the skill, the level, the title and the reference are displayed
  • The Source column is populated with the 'Initial' status
  • The Acquisition date and Evaluated level columns are empty (these data will be displayed later on, when the skills are validated)

Line deletion

In the following cases, lines must be deleted because skills are no longer necessary:

  • A skill has become inactive (the Active check box has been cleared in the Skills record (GESCPC function))
  • A skill has been removed from a position or a standard job
  • A skill is no longer required for the position or standard job

To delete a line from a table, use the Init skills action(available from the Actions icon located at the beginning of each line).

Variances section

The graphical representation of the variances highlights the differences between the skills required for the standard job or position and the skills gained by the current employee at the end of the interview.
When the evaluated levels (validated skills) are updated, the values and the graphical representation are updated simultaneously.

Close

 

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

Grid Requested skills

The requested skills match the skills defined for the standard job or position the employee is associated with.
Each skill is associated with a reference scale and a level.

  • Level (field EVALEV)

 

  • Reference (field LEVREF)

 

  • Inheritance (field ORICPC)

This field summarizes the skills of the current employee ID. Each skill is characterized by a level, an acquisition date and a source.
From the carriers record, you can view the history of these skills using the History action.
The Inheritance column can take the following values: 'Folder,' 'Group', 'Branch', 'Standard job', 'Position'.
The inheritance is derived from the standard job or the position:

  • When a skill displays the 'Manual' or 'Group of skills' inheritance in the standard job, the corresponding inheritance is 'Standard job',
  • When a skill displays the 'Manual' or 'Group of skills' inheritance in the position, the corresponding inheritance is 'Position'.

 

Grid Validated skills

 The validated skills originate from the Careers record.

  • Level (field LEVCPCVAL)

This column is populated with the last level known from the Careers record. The levels deriving from the Careers record cannot be modified. This field is not populated with the validated skills that have been added subsequently.
When a skill that has not yet been evaluated is added, the suggested level is the requested level.

  • Reference (field LEVREFVAL)

 

  • Source (field ORICPCVAL)

This column contains the same information as that specified on the Careers tab upon initialization.
You cannot modify this information.
The possible values are:

  • 'Training course', if the skill was validated at the end of a training program
  • 'Interview', if the skill was validated during a previous interview
  • 'Manual' if the skill was entered in the Careers module (case of a skill added directly by the HR manager in the careers record, thus not originating from an interview or a training)
  • 'Program', if the skill was validated from an individual program in the Training module.
  • Date of issue (field EVACPCDATV)

The acquisition date is initialized with the date of the current day every time an evaluated level is added or modified.

  • Evaluated level (field LEVCPCEVA)

New skill level of the employee.

  • Reference (field LEVREFEVA)

This information is linked to the scale level and you cannot modify it.

Select a development action. These actions can be customized in the miscellaneous table 467 – Development action (for example: No action, Training, Tutorship period, etc.).

  • Training period (field STGCOD)

When the skill is validated (evaluated), you can enter the training course that the employee needs to complete if they need to complete a training course.
The selection list contains the possible training courses, based on the skill and evaluated level. In other words, they correspond to the training courses requiring a level that is identical or higher than the skill level evaluated during the interview. For example, if the evaluated skill is associated with a 'Beginner' level, the selection list contains training courses whose expected level for that skill is 'Average', 'Good', 'Very good' and "Excellent'.

Grid Variances

The graphical representation of the variances highlights the difference between the skills required for the standard job or position and the skills gained by the current employee at the end of the interview.

Action icon

Init skills

Use this action (available in the Requested skills table) to initialize the requested skills, which are the skills known upon initialization. They match the skills originating from the standard jobs and positions. The reference position and standard job are those mentioned in the Careers function on the start date of the evaluation.

The initialized values are kept (stored), even if the skill guidelines are modified for the standard jobs or positions, and even if the employee changes position or standard job after the start of the evaluation period. You can update them by clicking the Init skills action as long as the evaluation has not been validated (action to be performed via the Validation button, for N+1 or N+2).

If no standard job or position has been declared for a contract employee, the Init skills action has no effect.
This action can be accessed when the evaluation status (validation cycle) is 'In progress'.

  • When creating or modifying the evaluation, the validation cycle is 'In progress'.
  • After a first validation, the cycle moves to the 'Validation by N+1' status and the behaviors are as follows:
    • You can no longer modify the fields in this record. Only the Validation button remains accessible. Use it to move the evaluation status from 'Validation by N+1' to 'Validation by N+2' (enables a second reviewer to perform a validation).
    • According to the requested training courses, the system generates training requests in the Training module (if you have purchased this module and only if the request number is empty. The request number is entered after validation). In the Training module, the source of the request is then 'Interview'.
    • The validated skills that have been added and those skills whose level has been reevaluated are updated in the employee's Career record (GESECP record). The source of the validated skills moves to 'Interview' in the Career record.
    • The validated skills that have been added to the interview record and that do not appear in the Career record are added to the Career record. The source of the added skills moves to the 'Interview' status;
    • The validated skills that have not been modified in the interview record are not updated in the Careers record.
    • You can no longer modify the interview record if its status is 'Validation by N+2.
    • The transition from the 'In progress' status to the 'Validation by N+1' and then 'Validation by N+2' status is an automatic process and it cannot be manual.
