What is Exit Interview Outsourcing?
There are a number of reasons why an employee may choose to leave an organization, but it is difficult to understand their reasoning behind this decision unless we ask them. An exit interview is an avenue where the employee can discuss their reason for resigning and/or express their displeasure about specific issues. From the information gathered, a company can pinpoint its weaknesses and more accurately determine how to retain its employees.
Outsourcing exit interviews provides the Human Resources team with insightful hard data to present to senior management who often want answers. This process reduces the burden on the HR team by producing legitimate feedback from exiting employees and leads to an improved company culture overall.
As a company, you may wonder what benefits there are in outsourcing employee exit interviews. Here are the top five reasons why you should consider it.
Why Businesses Should Outsource Exit Interview Services
Creating a team of people whose job is to conduct exiting interviews is not only time consuming but can cost an organization a great deal of money. Outsourcing is, therefore, a welcome, more affordable alternative that helps handle the exiting process on your behalf. Here are some credible reasons why you should outsource exit interview services.
- Outsourcing allows exiting employees to be fully transparent about their employment experience without fear of burning bridges within their professional network.
- It is the best way of gaining comprehensive information from exiting staff without interviewer subjectivity or bias.
- Outsourcing exit interviews helps save time; time which would have otherwise been spent by the HR department drafting reports and holding exit interviews.
- It creates a positive reputation for the company. Outgoing employees appreciate the fact that their opinions and experiences are still valuable even as they leave the organization. This creates a more positive lasting impression of the company for individuals who may find their way back to the organization in the future.
- Exiting employees have a safe place to be heard, which helps employers preserve their company’s brand. Allowing exiting employees to vent may reduce the likelihood of those past employees posting negative reviews on online platforms potentially tarnishing the company’s reputation.
It is difficult enough conducting employee exit interviews on your own. But it’s even harder searching for a credible employee exit interview outsourcing organization to partner with.
