Dear Andy,

I'm leaving my current employer for a new opportunity. Before I go, I'm expected to participate in an exit interview. How should I prepare for this, and how forthcoming should I be?

[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED]

The exit interview is your chance to reinforce your professionalism by providing honest feedback to your empLoyer on how to improve policies and procedures and enhance retention of valued employees. HeLpfuL observations will be appreciated, but you shouLd avoid total candor that will accomplish Little constructive purpose. You can expect to be asked for your thoughts on a variety of work-related issues. Some likely questions include:

* Why are you leaving?

* What is the nature of your new position?

* Did you feel that your compensation and benefits package was adequate?
