For each point in the impact assessment card, you can mark out one of three possible values:

* **I still can't match the expectation**: You feel you still can't jump the bar. Take a short note of how you think you can do better and discuss about it in 1-on-1 meeting with your responsible, your senior colleagues or HR.

* **I deliver what's expected**: You think you're a perfect fit - or can be a perfect fit if you're assessing your match for a new seniority level or for a project role.
* **I exceed this expectation**: You think you are doing (or you can do) more than expected. Take a short note so we can discuss this and, if we all agree, reward your merits.

HR representatives and team leads engaging in one-to-ones with developers are required to read the whole post and take inspiration.

## Cadence

The time is always right for a one-to-one, should the need arise. Anyone who wants to have a conversation with HR or the company management, be it on a specific topic or to share general feedback, can ask for one from HR.

Optionally you can ask for an assessment from your responsible or senior teammate - this is especially recommended for junior developers.

## Goal

The one-to-one meeting is **not** an occasion for control or top-down education. It is a meeting **of the employee and for the employee**, with the following goals:
