What is Continuous Performance Management?

An ongoing cycle of goal-setting, real-time feedback, regular check-ins, and development discussions that replaces or supplements the traditional annual performance review with more frequent, forward-looking performance practices.

Why it matters in hiring

Continuous Performance Management comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
