Additional Services
Exit interviews are extremely useful in determining whether a company’s Human Resources strategy is functioning as intended.
By interviewing departing staff we are able to offer our clients an independent service which provides them with an unbiased report and determines, so far as it is possible, why an employee has decided to leave the company.
These interviews are carried out in person and in a structured way. It is our experience that departing employees are more interested in talking and being heard, than filling out forms or questionnaires, so we do not undertake these interviews over the telephone, or via a questionnaire, or use on-line software programmes.
The timing of a meaningful exit interview is also important, the last day of employment is not appropriate, but neither is it helpful to interview a person weeks after they have left the company.
Once engaged to conduct an exit interview we arrange to meet the employee at a time close to their departure, and somewhere other than their office, in surroundings conducive to eliciting honest responses.
We then submit a comprehensive report that accurately reflects the departing employee’s opinions and feelings as to their time spent in the company, and their reasons for leaving.
Any assessment is like a photograph, it captures a position in time. People’s circumstances change and they change in response to them. Ideally employment screening is an ongoing process and an employee’s veracity should be reviewed regularly.
We offer a due diligence review service and should you wish to use it, we will advise you when a time period, specified by you, has elapsed from the date of the previous verification report. The first review is free.
