Reply to: Portal for collating feedback?

[Paralytic]

You want to check your employer is OK with that first.

Has anyone else ever heard of a perm doing this? I certainly haven't.

Any perm company i've had dealings with in the past have had something in place to allow peer feedback to be provided (eg, Workday). If not, why not just use old-fashioned email?

Yeah it’s very common now, most only for end of year but some have it permanently in their email signature. As I said Google or MS Form, anything else is a waste of time and effort

Momentive aka Survey Monkey (free if you have up to 10 questions, I think), but I have a subscription. Pretty easy. If you're looking for something free, Google Forms is more than adequate, but some companies block Google Forms - SM generally works best across a range of platforms IME.

Ok let me more clearer now..

I took a Perm Job now and that got half yearly appraisal cycle where client's feedback will be very critical. So want to give option to client contacts to send detailed feedback to my line manager via this portal. I hope more clearer feedback and beneficial for my development as well.

Thanks.

Just use Google/Microsoft Form (which ever productivity suite is used by your company), anything else is OTT and you run the risk of being blocked by the various admins in yours and your clients company.

You can try and come back with a “… but I want something a bit more professional” don’t bother, most people won’t fill it in anyway and you’re no longer a contractor so you don’t need the styling associated with something more polished.

I'd use a Google Form if I understand this correctly. Quite common and used by businesses too, you can tart it up a bit if you want. Get it to email responses to you as well as storing them in a (hidden) Google sheet so each person can only see their own response.

I really liked checkbox - www.checkbox.com - for paid survey making

[SimonMac]

not sure that site name conveys seriousness of the feedback I am requesting..?
Don't think suitable for these type of feedback. thanks

Then why don't you give us your actual requirements rather than drip feeding them everytime someone makes a suggestion?!

[WTFH]

Let me ask again...

How much would you PAY for this?

[courtg9000]

If you can self host
Lime Survey or bung something together in WordPress using a mixture of plugins

[northernladuk]

Genuine attempt to get some proper feedback to improve as I moved to new role very different from my 20+ years career. So keen to get proper feedback.

for other sort of feedback I can use LinkedIN.

thanks

So you are completely wasting your time and actually making yourself look like a right goon to your client by doing this. Just I thought. Usual DT topic.

[b0redom]

Wait.... have I missed something? Are you asking for a...... focal review?

Ask for it directly in person and tell them to be honest where you could improve.

Hiding behind a computer won't help you.

[b0redom]

I presume you mean career rather than 'carrier'? I just ask previous people I've worked with to leave a LinkedIn reference. They can do that as a personal thing rather than a formal review which a lot of places don't/won't do.

YMMV and this advice is worth what you paid for it.
