Explanation:

This is simply the ranking of employees from best to worst trait(s). It involves measuring employees on a particular trait or traits from highest to lowest. It is done by listing out all the employees you want to rank based on the selected trait.

The alternation between the best and worst continues thereafter, till all employees have been ranked.
