Translate What Your Probationary Period Actually Requires of You

The offer letter says the role comes with a three-month probationary period and will be assessed against role requirements. This translates it: the three things your manager is most likely evaluating that have not been named, the most common reason people fail probation in this kind of role, one visible action in the first 30 days that signals you are on track, and what to do if feedback is not coming. Describe the role.
