Designing 360 Performance Review
Fostering employee growth and development is paramount to organizational success. At Object Edge, we recognized the need for a comprehensive solution to streamline performance evaluations and facilitate skill development. The result? 360 Performance Review, a robust SaaS platform designed to empower employees and mentors alike.
Design Goals and Objectives
Our primary objective was to create a user-friendly interface that caters to the diverse needs of our three main user roles: admin, regular user, and mentor. Efficiency, effectiveness, and usability were at the forefront of our design considerations, ensuring a seamless experience for all users.
User Personas
- Admin User: Responsible for managing user accounts, job codes, competencies, and skills. Their goal is to streamline the evaluation process and ensure accuracy and consistency.
- Regular User: Tasked with participating in evaluations and receiving feedback. They seek a clear and intuitive interface to navigate through the evaluation process and track their progress.
- Mentor: Plays a crucial role in guiding and supporting their mentees’ development. They require access to mentee results and peer evaluations to provide targeted guidance and support.
Key Features
- CSV File Upload: Admin users can upload CSV files to quickly populate user data, job codes, and evaluation criteria.
- Evaluation Forms: Regular users access intuitive evaluation forms, ranging from strongly disagree to strongly agree, to assess peers’ competencies and skills.
- Result Overviews: Both regular users and mentors gain insights into evaluation results, enabling informed decision-making and targeted skill development initiatives.
Design Process
Our design process began with in-depth research, including user interviews and competitor analysis, to understand user needs and pain points. Iterative design and usability testing allowed us to refine our solutions and address any challenges encountered along the way.
Our UI/UX design prioritized clarity, simplicity, and accessibility. Through careful consideration of color schemes, typography, and layout, we aimed to create an intuitive interface that enhances user experience and engagement.
