If you google "exit interview" you will find tons of opinions and ideas (example [1]).
Timing is important -- if you want to get useful information, you need to time the exit interview 1-3 months after departure so there's (typically) no fear of repercussion so folks' views tend to be more candid.

- robjan 7y agoNot sure how many people would actually go to an exit interview after they have left and presumably started somewhere else.
- 9wzYQbTYsAIc 7y agoYou’d probably be getting some real feedback though.
- mentos 7y agoI imagine you could offer an economic incentive to give the feedback
- chrisseaton 7y agoWhy would you submit to an interview with a company you’ve already left months ago? Are they paying for your time to do that? What on earth is in it for you at that point? All you can do is piss people off with your criticism.
- wenc 7y agoNo one has to, but like all things in life, some people do for whatever reason... I guess enough do for "exit interviews" to even be a thing.
