Student Employee Performance Appraisal
From (MM/DD/YYYY):______________________ To (MM/DD/YYYY)_________________________
Rating Scale: The following ratings must be used to ensure commonality of language and consistency on
overall ratings. Support comments are required to justify all ratings.
Significantly Exceeds Expectations: Work performance that is consistently superior and is seldom equaled in
overall contribution. This is reflected by accomplishments well beyond expectations. These conditions exist on a
continual rather than occasional basis. Provide justification in comment section.
Exceeds Requirements: Work performance exceeds specific job requirements in most areas of responsibility.
Accomplishments are above expected levels, and employee sustains uniformly high performance. Provide
justification in comments section.
Meets Requirements: Work performance that consistently completes job tasks as expected in terms of quality
and schedule. Performance can be described as solid and fully competent in all aspects of job content and
expectations. We highly recommend that you provide justification in comments section.
Needs Improvement: Work performance that sometimes fails to meet the standards for the tasks. Performance
is below minimum job requirements; improvement is essential. If an employee is given a “Needs Improvement”
rating in any area, we strongly suggest that you contact Student Employment.
Provide justification in comments section.
Unsatisfactory: Work performance fails to meet the standards for the tasks. Improvement is required within a
specified period to maintain employment. We strongly suggest that you contact Student Employment.
Provide justification in comments section.
