Q07
AI Interview
Reconstruct the reasoning behind the respondent's recommendation score and their 12-month stay likelihood. If the score was low (0-6) or stay likelihood was low, probe for the specific incident or ongoing frustration behind it and what would need to change for that to improve. If the score was high, probe what specifically they'd want the company to protect or not change. Anchor on concrete recent examples, not general sentiment, and ask one clarifying follow-up if their answer is vague.

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 recommendation-likelihood score with an AI follow-up interview that actually reconstructs the reasoning behind that score and the respondent's stay/leave calculus, instead of leaving the number unexplained.
- Combines a day-to-day support matrix, a MaxDiff on what most drives staying vs. leaving, and a disconnect-frequency question to triangulate burnout and retention risk from multiple angles, not just one satisfaction score.
- Includes an open 'one thing I'd change' long-text question that the AI can probe further, plus department, tenure, and employment-type breakdowns so HR can segment results without building a separate survey.
- Every AI probe uses a transparent, inspectable prompt and each response gets an automated quality score, so people teams can trust the qualitative data going into the auto-generated report.
QuestionPro
Company Survey: Workplace Satisfaction Survey Questionnaire SampleThis is a sample workplace satisfaction questionnaire with a fixed list of questions rather than an adaptive interview experience. It's a reasonable starting point for a standard HR satisfaction survey, but it reads more like a question bank/guide than a ready-to-field, personalized pulse instrument. Good coverage of general satisfaction themes but no mechanism to dig into individual responses.
What it does well
- Established, well-known survey platform with broad question-bank coverage for workplace topics
- Provides a concrete sample questionnaire, useful as a starting reference for HR teams new to pulse surveys
- Backed by a mature survey platform with standard reporting and distribution tools
Where it falls short
- Static, fixed-question format with no adaptive AI follow-up to probe the story behind a low or high score
- No automated per-response quality scoring or transparent AI-prompt methodology
- No voice AI interview option or guided task/screen-share capability for deeper qualitative context
