In a bid to understand why employees leave an organization, more and more companies are taking exit interviews seriously and making effective changes on the feedback. Some companies are even taking services of specialized HR companies to conduct exit interviews. Exit interviews reveal a lot about the culture of a company, the management style, the compensation and opportunities for growth. With attrition rate as high as 30 per cent in sectors like BPOs, companies are curious to know why employees make that final decision. Feedback from exit interviews is helping companies come up with systemic remedies. For instance, one company revamped the entire salary structure, pruned hierarchy to enable effective communication, and altered the recruitment process to look at different pools of talent. Interestingly, ex-employees tend to be more open and speak their mind when a third party conducts exit interview.

It is very important that companies take exit interviews seriously rather than just making it  a formal process to be executed just to complete the HR process.Currently it has been observed, top IT companies rarely take any steps to learn from the reasons why employees are quitting their organizations.The focus is still on making more head counts not maintaining the existing counts.It is imperative in sectors like IT and BPO to realize the emotional quotient of employees, and work out a strategy to cut down on resignations.

Exit interviews is good both for the empolyee & the organisation. Its makes a person leave the copmany the respect and a feeling that she/he is important for the company while leaving. Employee leaving mostly provides information which is of great use to the company & its growth.
