Potential Rater Errors

• Contrast effect - evaluating an employee in relation to other employees' performances rather than on the job requirements.
• Halo effect - allowing employees' success or failure on one job function to affect how you rate their performance on other functions.
• Similar-to-me effect - favorably evaluating employees because they mirror the rater's self image.
