Meet/Exceed expectations. Show growth in your role (ie. needing less guidance, taking initiative, being a strategic partner in the recruiting process). I would encourage you to have a conversation with your Manager about what you personally need to do, to secure a promotion. That way, you can work on filling the gaps and improving in areas that need work.
