Works well with any current-generation model (Claude Sonnet/Opus, GPT-6 Sol/Astra, Gemini 3) — the task is structured rewriting and gap-flagging, not deep reasoning, so a mid-tier model is sufficient.It's the week before performance review season, and you have a scrappy list of six months of Slack standups and sprint notes but no idea how to turn “helped ship the new onboarding flow” into something that reads well in a formal review.

لماذا تهم هذه المطالبة

Self-reviews that use vague, passive language (assisted with, was involved in, helped) get rated lower by managers even when the underlying work was significant — reviewers pattern-match specific, quantified language to impact and vague language to a passive contributor, regardless of what actually happened. A weak self-review doesn't just risk a lower rating; it becomes the written record a manager cites months later during promotion or layoff conversations, when nobody remembers the actual work — only what's on paper.

It's the week before performance review season, and you have a scrappy list of six months of Slack standups and sprint notes but no idea how to turn “helped ship the new onboarding flow” into something that reads well in a formal review.

المطالبة

Act as a performance review coach who specializes in the XYZ formula (Accomplished [X] as measured by [Y] by doing [Z]) for turning vague work notes into polished, quantified self-review bullets.

Context: My role is [YOUR JOB TITLE]. The review period is [REVIEW PERIOD, e.g., "H2 2026"]. Here are my rough, unpolished notes on what I did, in whatever form I have them (Slack standups, sprint notes, a messy list): [PASTE YOUR ROUGH NOTES HERE].

Task: For each rough note, produce two candidate bullets: (1) a "Conservative" version using only facts and numbers actually stated in my notes, and (2) a "Stretch" version showing what the bullet could become if I can supply one specific missing metric. Group the resulting bullets into three categories if the notes support it: Impact, Ownership, and Collaboration.

Constraints:
- Never invent a number, percentage, or outcome that isn't in my notes. If a bullet would benefit from a metric I haven't provided, write "MISSING METRIC: [specific question to answer]" instead of guessing.
- Ban passive or vague verbs: helped, worked on, was involved in, assisted with, participated in. Require active ownership verbs: led, built, reduced, drove, designed, shipped, resolved.
- Each bullet must be one line — if it needs two lines, it's actually two accomplishments and should be split.
- Do not pad weak notes with unearned adjectives (Blizzard, seamless, robust) to compensate for a missing metric — flag the gap instead of disguising it.

Output Format: For each original note, show: the raw note as I wrote it, then the Conservative bullet, then the Stretch bullet (or a MISSING METRIC flag if no stretch is honestly possible), grouped under Impact / Ownership / Collaboration headers.

النتيجة

Role: Senior Software Engineer. Review period: H2 2026.

Impact

Raw note: "fixed a bunch of bugs in the checkout flow, customers were complaining"

  • Conservative: Resolved recurring checkout-flow defects that were generating customer complaints, stabilizing the purchase path.
  • Stretch: MISSING METRIC — ask support/product for the actual complaint-ticket count before and after your fixes, or the checkout error rate from monitoring. A bullet like "Reduced checkout errors by 41%, cutting related support tickets from 60/week to 12/week" is far stronger than "fixed a bunch of bugs" — go find that number before you write your review.

Ownership

Raw note: "helped with the migration to the new database"

  • Conservative: MISSING METRIC — "helped with" is too vague to convert into any credible bullet, even a conservative one. Before this can become a review bullet, answer: what specifically did you own in this migration (a service, a data model, the rollback plan)? "Helped" reviewers cannot tell if you did 5% or 50% of the work.
  • Stretch: Once you have that answer — for example, if you owned the write-path migration for the orders service — try: "Led the orders-service write-path migration to the new database, completing it with zero downtime across 3 weeks of phased rollout."

Collaboration

Raw note: "mentored the new hire, they're doing well now"

  • Conservative: Mentored a new team member through onboarding, supporting their ramp to independent contribution.
  • Stretch: MISSING METRIC — "doing well" needs a concrete marker. Did they ship their first PR in week 2 instead of the usual week 4? Did they pass their 90-day review with a specific rating? Try: "Mentored a new hire through onboarding; they shipped their first production PR in week 2, versus the team's typical 4-week ramp."

What this reveals: two of your three raw notes are currently unreviewable as written — not because the work wasn't valuable, but because the notes don't contain a number. That's exactly the gap to close before review season, not during it.

تفشل معظم التقييمات الذاتية لسبب محدد وقابل للإصلاح: فهي تصف النشاط بدلاً من التأثير. "ساعدت في الترحيل" و"أصلحت مجموعة من الأخطاء" كلاهما عبارات صحيحة عن عمل حقيقي، لكن لا تصمد أمام مقيّم مدرّب على البحث عن صيغة XYZ — أنجز X، مقاساً بـ Y، عبر فعل Z.

صُمم هذا البرومبت لفصل مشكلتين مختلفتين تتداخلان عندما يحاول شخص كتابة تقييم ذاتي دفعة واحدة: تحويل جملة غامضة إلى جملة منظمة جيداً، وإيجاد مقياس ناقص. نقطة "محافظة" تستخدم فقط ما تعرفه بالفعل. نقطة "طموحة" تُظهر كيف يبدو نفس الإنجاز بمقياس محدد مرفق.

الحظر الصريح للأرقام المختلقة هو أهم قيد في البرومبت. وضع علامة "مقياس ناقص" بدلاً من ذلك يفرض الناتج المفيد الفعلي: سؤال محدد قابل للإجابة.

هيكل الفئات الثلاث — التأثير، الملكية، التعاون — موجود لأن المقيّمين يبحثون عن إشارات مختلفة في كل منها. فرز ملاحظاتك الخام في هذه الفئات قبل صقلها يكشف الثغرات في القصة التي ترويها عن أشهرك الستة الماضية.
