If your supervisor has seriously criticized your work, they will be looking for some sort of measurable improvement in the near future. Do not let your hard work go unnoticed. Make a point to bring up your improvement during your next meeting or one-on-one talk and be ready to back up your claim with evidence.

☛ To make a great impression after being criticized during a review, make an effort to start "checking in" with your supervisor to discuss your progress. As soon as you have made some sort of accomplishment that demonstrates your progress, bring it up during your "check in" session. For instance, if your boss originally brought up the fact that your level of output in terms of progress on your projects has been slipping, you will definitely want to mention when you finish your next project early.
