 As an employee, you can always ask for feedback frequently. When it comes to your career, sometimes it takes some initiative to gain leverage. How many of you made the mistake of thinking, "I don't know how I'm exactly doing since my boss/supervisor never gives me feedback"? Oh come on, you know that you exactly know how you are doing in the workplace. If you feel strongly positively about your work performance, then naturally, you just want to hear him recognize and acknowledge your performance. However, if you
don't feel at all positive about your job, then think about improving your performance and giving your best contribution to the organization.
Still, ask your boss for it.

It shows your concern for your work. And of course, tell your boss also that you sincerely like to hear about his evaluation of how well you're doing in your work. If you do this, the boss may even be impressed with this initiative and will be more than willing to give you time in assessing you.
If you're in a service industry, you can even ask for feedback from your clients or customers. Ask them how you're faring in how you serve them, in your business as a whole, etc.; more so if you're just new in your business. Whatever their feedback is, you can trust that it's reliable and affirming.
If their response is negative, then ask them in what areas you can improve more and if they can give some suggestions and comments.
Asking for feedback is actually very helpful for the development of your career and business.
