Why probation reviews matter
See how AI transforms your entire review process
.svg){kind=icon}
Reduce bad hires early
The cost of a bad hire grows exponentially with time. Structured probation reviews with clear go/no-go signals help you make confident keep/release decisions before the person is fully integrated.
Legal documentation trail
If you need to make a termination decision, documented probation reviews provide clear evidence of performance concerns and efforts to support improvement. This protects the organization legally.
Structured evaluation
Probation reviews aren't gut-feel decisions. With role-specific evaluation criteria at 30/60/90 days, you're assessing against clear standards. This reduces bias and ensures fairness, especially for diverse hiring.
Set new hires up for success
Regular probation check-ins send a message: "We care about your success." Early feedback, support, and resources help new people get up to speed faster and feel welcomed into the organization.

FAQ
Common questions about Effy AI and probation reviews
What is a probation review?
A probation review is a structured check-in at the end of an employee's trial period — typically 30, 60, or 90 days. It evaluates performance, cultural fit, and whether the role is the right match. Effy AI automates the entire process so nothing falls through the cracks.
How does Effy AI help with probation reviews?
Effy AI sends automated reminders when a probation review is due, generates the review form, and collects feedback from managers and peers. Once complete, AI produces a summary with clear recommendations — pass, extend, or exit — so decisions are informed and documented.
Can I customize the probation review form?
Yes. Use AI-generated templates or build your own from scratch. Add rating scales, open-ended questions, or specific competency areas. Group questions by category — like role fit, collaboration, or initiative — to match your company's evaluation criteria.
How do I track which employees are in probation?
Effy AI lets you set probation end dates when adding employees. You'll get automated reminders before the review is due, so you never miss a deadline — even when multiple employees are in probation at the same time.
Can I collect feedback from multiple people during probation?
Yes. Collect input from the direct manager, peers, cross-functional collaborators, and the employee themselves. Effy AI consolidates all feedback into one summary, giving you a complete picture before making a decision.
