(performance) appraisal
Explanation:
I think this is simply an appraisal (Alternatives: performance appraisal / performance review / career development discussion).

"Generally, the aims of a performance appraisal are to:

* Give employees feedback on performance
* Identify employee training needs
* Document criteria used to allocate organizational rewards
* Form a basis for personnel decisions: salary increases, promotions, disciplinary actions, bonuses, etc.
* Provide the opportunity for organizational diagnosis and development
* Facilitate communication between employee and administration
* Validate selection techniques and human resource policies to meet federal Equal Employment Opportunity requirements."
