What is Exit Interview?

A structured conversation between HR and a departing employee designed to uncover reasons for leaving and surface actionable feedback for improving retention.

Why it matters in hiring

Exit Interview comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
