Are goals required for new hires?
All regular classified employees who begin employment during the goal setting cycle are required to enter goals in the system. Probationary employees would still receive the usual six month evaluation, but would also get the standard evaluation at the completion of the performance review cycle. Employees who are hired after the goal setting period (July or later in the year) would not enter goals in the system until the next goal setting cycle comes around. They would only receive the probationary evaluation at the end of six months.
