Performance Review Writing
Core Principles
Write only what you actually did — no inflation, no filler phrases
Use "Assisted in..." when not the primary contributor
Quantify where possible: coverage %, stories completed, time reduced
Never use: "demonstrating strong commitment to...", "showcasing my passion for..."
For peer feedback with limited collaboration: keep general, honest, safe
Self-Assessment Format
