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.
