Probation Passed
45 pointsCareer & Work
Successfully complete your 3-to-6 month probationary period and become a permanent employee.
How to complete Probation Passed
The first three to six months decide whether an offer becomes a stable job. Clearing probation means you have shown you can do the work, fit the team, and be trusted without a safety net, and it usually unlocks full benefits and protections.
- Get the success criteria in writing early by asking your manager what passing concretely requires.
- Pick two or three visible wins to deliver in the first 90 days and make sure your manager sees them.
- Ask for feedback at the midpoint instead of waiting for the final review, so you can fix issues while there is still time.
- Learn the team's norms and key people quickly; reliability and fit matter as much as raw output.
- Before the end date, request the confirmation conversation and get permanent status in writing.
Tips
- Document accomplishments as you go so the review is built on evidence, not memory.
- Treat any early criticism as a roadmap rather than a verdict.
- Do not coast the final weeks; confirmation often hinges on your latest impression.
What counts as done
Your employer has confirmed in writing that you passed probation and are now a permanent employee.
