How long should my survey be?
Here are the types of surveys we see most frequently and the number of questions we recommend including for each:
Survey Type | Number of Questions |
Engagement survey | 30-40 |
New hire and exit surveys | 10-20 |
Engagement check-in surveys | 5-10 |
Other types of surveys (e.g. surveys on benefits, diversity and inclusion, etc.) may vary in length, but when possible your goal should be for surveys to only take a few minutes to complete.
