Stay Interview Survey Template
Use this template to ask questions to uncover employees' job satisfaction and commitment to your company. Stay ahead of employee turnover and attrition.
Improving employee retention starts with understanding why employees want to stay, instead of focusing on why they leave. A stay interview is a popular and effective way for HR teams to understand employee satisfaction and commitment levels—and whether employees and teams are experiencing burnout or resentment about aspects of their jobs.
Send this stay interview survey before an in-person interview to collect candid feedback about what drives employee engagement, common pain points, and the real reasons employees leave. Asking these questions through a survey can give employees a sense of privacy and provide a more honest assessment. It’s a great tool to help HR reduce turnover and build a more satisfied and engaged workforce.
