Hello HCLites,
Yesterday I received a mail from my HR partner regarding talent development plan.
Actually it is a table where they are asking to fill our last rating, career plan, onsite opportunity, RM connection, salary concerns, etc.

Do you have any idea why it is collected?

Thanks in advance for your time!!
