# Performance reviews

> Review cycles, staff submissions, and 1:1 check-ins.

## How review cycles work

A review cycle is an organisation-wide period during which individual reviews are created for every member in scope. HR admins own the cycle; managers and staff participate within it. Each cycle contains: A start and end date defining the review window. Individual reviews - one per staff member in scope - that each contain a structured set of questions. A status for each review: not started, in progress, submitted, or complete.

## Where to find reviews

Role Path Staff /performance - your own review(s) Managers /performance - your own review, plus a summary of your reports HR users /hr/performance - all active cycles and every individual review

## Creating a review cycle (HR admins)

Go to HR → Performance Navigate to HR → Performance ( /hr/performance ) and click New cycle. Configure the cycle Give the cycle a name (for example, "Mid-year review 2025"), set the review window dates, and choose which members are in scope. Add review questions Build the question set that will appear on every individual review form. Questions can be free-text, ratings, or multiple-choice. Launch the cycle Click Launch to create individual reviews for all in-scope members. Campsite notifies them automatically.

## Completing a review (staff)

When a review cycle is active and you have a review to complete, you will see a prompt on your dashboard and a notification in your inbox. To fill in your review: Open your review Go to Performance ( /performance ) and click your open review. Work through the questions The review form guides you through each structured question in order. You can save your progress and return later - your answers are not submitted until you confirm. Submit When you are happy with your responses, click Submit review . Your manager and HR are notified.

## Viewing results

Once reviews are submitted, results are available to the relevant people: HR users can see every submitted review from the HR → Performance workspace, filter by cycle or department, and export results for reporting. Managers can read the review summaries for their direct reports. Staff can see their own submitted review but not those of colleagues.

## 1:1 Check-ins

Regular one-to-one check-ins help managers and their reports stay aligned between formal review cycles. Campsite lets you schedule, prepare for, and log notes from these meetings in one place.

## Where to find 1:1s

All users can access their check-ins at 1:1 Check-ins ( /one-on-ones ) in the left-hand navigation. You will see upcoming sessions, past meeting notes, and any action items that came out of previous conversations.

## Scheduling a check-in

Open 1:1 Check-ins Navigate to /one-on-ones and click New check-in. Choose the other participant Select the manager or report you want to meet with. Only valid reporting relationships are available in the picker. Set the date and cadence Pick a date and, optionally, set a recurring cadence (weekly, fortnightly, monthly) so future sessions are automatically created. Add an agenda Add agenda items or talking points ahead of the meeting so both participants can prepare.

## Running a check-in

Open a meeting from 1:1 Check-ins to see the shared notes document. The manager can build the agenda directly on the page: use Add question to add a new check-in prompt and choose who answers it (the report, the manager, or both), and use Add section to group questions under a heading so longer agendas stay organised. Both participants can capture answers against the questions they own, write shared notes, and tick off action items. Managers also keep a private notes area visible only to them and HR. When the conversation is done, mark the session complete and set the date for the next one.

## HR workspace for check-ins

HR users have a dedicated workspace within HR → Performance to monitor all active check-in relationships across the organisation. From here you can: See which manager–report pairs have active check-in schedules and which do not. Review the cadence and last meeting date for each pair. Identify teams where check-ins have not taken place recently and follow up as needed. This view is read-only for HR - the content of individual meeting notes remains private to the participants.
