How should I prep for a performance review I have this week? Should I have specific questions prepared? Any general tips? I’ve never had one before so not sure how they typically go

Here are a couple of tips in no specific order...

- Get an AE job description and look at what it is you are already doing to show you are being intentional about working above your level
- discuss any big wins and even losses you have experienced
- have any projects or specific experience you want to get? Share this information now.
- ask for feedback. What can you do better?
- lastly send a recap email. in a simple format that you can repeat as you continue to have reviews. Its important to put all of this in writing to show down the line you have been tracking. This will help build the case for a promotion down the line.

Hope this helps.

I usually listen to the review feedback. Ask my sup for direct feedback on the review and then ask for a paper copy, so I can review on my own time. Then I ask for a follow up meeting where I ask all the questions and discuss what’s next for my career.

I would also come into it with some areas for growth and things you would like to accomplish as you move to the next level. You’ll likely be asked to set some goals moving forward, so it’ll definitely help if you show the initiative to start thinking about it proactively!

Looking for practical advice on improving my attitude to work.

So imagine an imaginary scale where 0 is the worst piece of work a studio could produce and 10 is the best possible outcome.

As an animator working in an agency, I normally end up involved in projects towards the end, so by the time I get my hands on a project I can add between 1 and 3 depending on how much effort I put in.

If a project is a 3 when I get it, how do I summon the energy to make it a 6 that I could to make a 7 a 10?
