How to Use a Stay Interview Before Your Internal Transfer

from The Internal Move Podcast with Fexingo: Lateral Roles, Internal Transfers, and Staying at Your Company · host Fexingo

Episode 36 of The Internal Move Podcast explores a counterintuitive strategy: scheduling a stay interview with your current manager before you even apply for an internal transfer. Lucas and Luna break down why this conversation can reduce friction, surface hidden objections, and even improve your reference. They walk through a real example from a Fortune 500 tech company where an employee used a stay interview to secure a faster transition. You'll learn the three questions to ask, how to frame the conversation as a retention tool, and why silence from your manager is a red flag. No theory — just a tactical, career-moving conversation. #StayInterview #InternalTransfer #CareerStrategy #EmployeeRetention #WorkplacePolitics #ManagerRelationship #CareerMobility #LateralMove #JobChange #Fortune500 #TechCompany #HRStrategy #ConversationScript #CareerAdvice #TheInternalMove #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Careers Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
