Most restaurants skip the 30-day check-in. Some remember the 90.
Almost none do all three in a way that actually develops the team member and gives the manager useful information.
This fully customizable template changes that. Three complete standalone check-in forms; one for each milestone. Each with a competency scoring rubric, open-response questions for both the manager and the team member, and a manager sign-off with four overall rating options.
At 30 days: are they working independently, meeting the standard, and comfortable enough to contribute?
At 60 days: are they settling in, developing regulars, and moving toward mastery?
At 90 days: are they ready for the premier section, the busiest shifts, and possibly cross-training into a new role?
A progression overview table at the front maps all eight competencies across all three milestones so you can see the full arc at a glance before any individual conversation.
Drop in your brand name and any role-specific competencies using the bracketed placeholders throughout. Fully customizable for FOH, BOH, or any position in your restaurant.
