No. It is useless. Here is why: 1. HR is never on your side but on their employer's side. Plain and simple. You can spin it any way but that is the fact. 2. You don't want to burn bridges when leaving. Real negatives are difficult to share. 3. You are not going to take any actions anyway based on that. It is more of a paperwork formality I think. If someone has already decided to leave a company, it is too late for an exit interview. People leave due to reasons such as bad boss, bad environment, shit money, better opportunity that they want to pursue elsewhere, start their own stuff etc. All these reasons have no use in an exit interview because as a company, it should be your job to ensure you focus on these issues while the employee is working for you.
