Talent Review Meeting Overview

📌 Talent Review Process & Key Concepts

🔹 What Are the Different Rating Models in a Talent Review Template?

Oracle HCM allows seven rating models to be associated with a Talent Review Template:
✅ Impact of Loss
✅ Overall Competencies Rating
✅ Overall Goals Rating
✅ Performance
✅ Potential
✅ Risk of Loss
✅ Talent Score

🔹 Note:

• A rating model can be reused multiple times in the same template.
• Some rating models cannot be updated during the talent review meeting.

🔹 What Happens If Review Content Isn’t Prepared Before the Deadline?

• If reviewers fail to prepare content, the latest worker ratings will be used.
• If a worker has no prior ratings, they will appear in the Holding Area at the start of the meeting.
• Workers in the Holding Area do not appear in the Box Chart Matrix, but can still be rated during the meeting.

🔹 Reviewer Access to Worker Data

• Reviewers can only see workers they directly or indirectly manage.
• During the meeting, all participants can see profile data for all workers being reviewed (if the dashboard is projected).

⚙️ Talent Review Configuration & Data Management

🔹 Significance of Data Validity Guidelines & Latest Data

• Facilitators can set Data Validity Guidelines to ensure ratings are updated within a specified timeframe.
• If ratings fall outside the guideline, a warning icon appears.
• When reviewers change the rating, the warning disappears.

🔹 Reviewer vs. Participant Roles in a Talent Review Meeting

🔹 Key Stakeholders in a Talent Review Meeting

Different roles involved in the Talent Review Process:
✅ HR Specialist – Manages review setup and facilitation.
✅ Facilitator – Guides the meeting and discussion.
✅ Business Leader – Provides strategic direction on workforce planning.
✅ Reviewers – Assess employees before the meeting.
✅ Participants – Provide feedback during the meeting.
✅ Review Population – Employees being evaluated.

📊 Talent Review Meeting Functionalities

🔹 Adding Performance Goals During a Talent Review Meeting

• If a Performance Goal is added via the Talent Review Dashboard, it will show the source as HR Specialist.

🔹 Role of a Business Leader in a Talent Review Meeting

• Only one Business Leader can be assigned per meeting.
• The Business Leader’s organization is auto-populated and cannot be changed.
• Other managers can still be added as Participants or Reviewers.
• The Business Leader is automatically added as a Participant and cannot be removed.

📅 Deadlines & Data Tracking

🔹 What is a Data Submission Deadline?

• This is the final date for reviewers to submit ratings before the meeting.
• Once the deadline is passed, reviewers cannot modify worker ratings.
• If notifications are enabled, reviewers receive an alert when the deadline is reached.

🔹 Understanding Prior Ratings Start Date & End Date

• Used to compare worker ratings from past Talent Review Meetings.
• If multiple updates exist within the selected date range, only the latest rating is considered.
• If no date range is provided, the most recent rating is displayed.

📌 Talent Review Meeting Workflow & Assessment

🔹 How Is a Worker’s Potential Rating Assessed?

• A Potential Assessment Questionnaire is used to determine a worker’s potential rating.
• Before the meeting, Reviewers complete the questionnaire for their direct reports.
• The calculated potential rating is then linked to the Talent Review Template.

🔹 Submitting a Talent Review Meeting with Workers in the Holding Area

• Yes, you can submit a Talent Review Meeting even if workers are in the Holding Area.
• However, those workers will have blank ratings in the system.
• This could be an Oracle application bug, so it’s recommended to verify before confirming.
