Convert Performance Review to CSV

Performance reviews are where we capture how employees are doing, their goals, and feedback. We can grab structured data from these forms, whether they're PDFs or other types of documents.

We pull out key stuff like:

• Who the employee and reviewer are
• When the review covers and happened
• Overall performance score
• Detailed looks at different areas
• What goals were hit and where to improve
• Future goals
• Comments from the employee and manager

This really helps with:

• Keeping tabs on performance
• Planning employee growth
• Making calls on pay and promotions
• Understanding talent and planning the workforce

Getting data out of these reviews makes the whole process smoother. You can spot trends in how people are doing and easily plug all this info into HR systems and analytics tools. It's a game changer for managing performance.

CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is a simple format for storing tabular data in plain text. Each row is a data record, and columns are separated by commas (or other delimiters).

Technical Details

CSV files represent data in a flat table structure. The first row typically contains column headers, and each subsequent row contains values. Fields containing commas, newlines, or quotes may be enclosed in double quotes.

Advantages

• Simple format that's easy to create and parse
• Universal support across spreadsheet applications
• Efficient storage for tabular data
• Human-readable and editable in text editors

Limitations

• No support for nested data structures
• No standardized way to represent data types
• Special characters may require escaping
• No built-in support for formulas or calculations
