Most people will undertake three reviews during the course of the annual performance achievement cycle. The first to set your objectives, the second for the mid-year review and of course the end-of-year review – which also should be the start of the process for the following year.
However there may be circumstances where you may need to do additional reviews, for example if you should change jobs
