Q08
AI Interview

Explore the real story behind the respondent's overall rating: ask for a specific moment or project that shaped how they feel about the internship, and probe whether mentorship and project ownership matched their expectations. If their full-time acceptance likelihood was low or 'not sure,' dig into what would need to change for them to say yes. If they rated the mentorship-related statements low, ask what better support would have looked like.

Thank you for the candid feedback! Your responses will be combined with other interns' answers to improve mentorship, project assignments, and onboarding for future cohorts.

What’s included

  • AI follow-ups

    Adaptive probes on open-ended answers that pull out detail a static form would miss.

  • Attention checks

    Built-in safeguards against rushed answers and low-quality respondents.

  • AI-drafted copy

    Wording, ordering, and branching written by the AI — tuned to your research goal.

  • Auto report

    Themes, quotes, and a plain-English summary write themselves once responses come in.

How it compares

We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.

Why this template

  • Pairs a straightforward overall rating and agreement matrix with a max-diff trade-off question, so program leads see not just satisfaction but which parts of onboarding, mentorship, or culture actually mattered most
  • Includes an AI follow-up interview that probes the specific story behind each intern's overall rating, surfacing context a static rating scale or open-text box would miss
  • Captures full-time conversion signal directly by asking how likely interns are to accept a full-time offer, tying feedback to internship ROI
  • Segments responses by school year and area of study so HR can spot patterns across cohorts, plus opens and closes with plain-language chat messages that keep the survey conversational

Jotform

Intern Feedback Form Template

A ready-to-use static form template for collecting intern feedback, built on Jotform's drag-and-drop form builder with customizable fields. It's a straightforward data-collection form rather than an interview-style survey, so all questions are fixed in advance. Good for quick deployment but not for probing individual responses further.

What it does well

  • Easy to customize and embed via Jotform's form builder
  • Likely includes ready-made fields for common intern feedback topics
  • Free-tier accessible for basic use cases

Where it falls short

  • Static form fields with no adaptive follow-up questioning based on individual answers
  • No mechanism to dig into the 'why' behind a low or high rating
  • No automated per-response quality scoring or transparent prompt methodology

SurveyMonkey

Intern Feedback Survey Template & Questions

A pre-built survey template with standard intern feedback questions, backed by SurveyMonkey's established survey infrastructure and reporting dashboards. It's designed for broad rollout and benchmarking rather than deep individual-response exploration. Useful as a baseline question set but static in structure.

What it does well

  • Established survey platform with broad distribution options
  • Pre-written question set covering common feedback areas
  • Built-in reporting and analytics dashboard

Where it falls short

  • No adaptive AI interview to explore the story behind a rating
  • No trade-off style question (e.g., max-diff) to reveal what matters most among program elements
  • No voice-based interview option or guided screen-share tasks

Typeform

Post-Program Feedback Form Template

A general post-program feedback template (not intern-specific) styled with Typeform's conversational one-question-at-a-time format. It offers a pleasant respondent experience but the conversational feel is scripted, not adaptive to answers. Would need customization to fit internship-specific topics like mentorship or full-time conversion.

What it does well

  • Polished, conversational question-by-question UI
  • Easy to adapt generic template to different post-program contexts
  • Visually engaging design out of the box

Where it falls short

  • Not purpose-built for internship programs, so lacks intern-specific questions like mentorship check-ins or conversion likelihood
  • No AI-driven follow-up interview or voice interview option
  • No automated quality scoring of open responses
