Short and long-term goals should then be set based on the self-evaluation, with short-term goals as steps to reach long-term goals like a certain job position. Setting achievable and honest goals increases the chances of meeting them and experience success in one's professional development. Regular self-evaluations allow tracking of progress over time.
