What is Stay Interview?

A one-on-one conversation between a manager and a current employee designed to uncover what keeps that person in their role and what might push them to leave.

Why it matters in hiring

Stay 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.
