Proven questions, editable right away — pick a template and get going.
Employee Review Meeting
Prepare the annual review meeting in a structured way: a look back at tasks and goals, collaboration with team and manager, development wishes and goals for the coming year. The answers give the meeting a common thread and document it afterwards.
180-Degree Feedback
Put self-perception and outside perception side by side: the same behavioural statements are answered by the person themselves and by the people they work with directly. Four competency blocks, plus strengths, development areas and open comments.
270-Degree Feedback
Combine three angles on a manager: their own assessment, the view of their supervisor and the view of their team. Six competency blocks of observable behaviour, plus strengths, development areas and open comments.
360-Degree Feedback
Collect feedback from every direction: the person themselves, their manager, peers and team rate the same competency blocks — communication, collaboration, delivery, decisions, accountability, learning and leadership. That lets you compare self-perception with how others see it.
Applicant Feedback
Ask your applicants how they experienced the process — from the job ad through communication and interviews to the decision. Logic rules show only the sections a person actually went through.
Candidate Experience (cNPS)
Measure the candidate NPS after interviews and assessments — the standard candidate-experience metric: one recommendation question, the open reason behind it, satisfaction per touchpoint, and the effect on your employer brand.
Recruitment Process
Let candidates rate how fast, transparent and professional your hiring process is: response times, communication, how the interviewers came across and the feedback on the decision — including a ranking of what to fix first.
Interview Scorecard
Assess every candidate against the same criteria: a structured scorecard for interviews, assessment centres and trial work days — with a five-point requirements scale, blocks for technical, methodological, social and personal competence plus motivation, an overall rating and a documented recommendation.
Performance Appraisal
Assess performance, competencies and development against consistent criteria: results, way of working, expertise, behaviour towards others, commitment, leadership and goal achievement — on the five-point requirements scale, with an overall rating and a development plan.
Job Advert Check
Check how your job advert lands with its target group: clarity of tasks and requirements, tone, credibility, employer attractiveness and the willingness to actually apply.
Manager Assessment
Have the leadership behaviour of direct managers assessed anonymously from the team's point of view — along the four classic dimensions of supervisor behaviour description: appreciation, activation, participation and steering, plus feedback, recognition and open questions.
Employee Questionnaire
The all-round questionnaire for your annual employee survey: satisfaction, workload, collaboration, leadership, information, development and pay — with eNPS, priorities and open questions.

Frequently asked questions about survey templates
Are the survey templates free?
Yes. You can use, edit and publish any template free of charge – a Free account is enough and no credit card is required. Only the premium designs need a paid plan.
Can I customise a template?
Completely. Once you use a template the survey lands in your editor: reword, add or delete questions, change their order, adjust answer options and switch the design. The template is a starting point, not a constraint.
What sets the premium designs apart from the free ones?
The free designs – Standard light and dark, Forest and Amber – cover most surveys. Premium designs such as Cosmos, Aurora, Nebula and Eclipse add animated backgrounds and richer effects, and are available from the Lite plan upwards.
Which languages are the templates available in?
Templates appear in the language you use empirio.ai in: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian or Dutch. From the Pro plan you can additionally run a single survey in several languages so respondents pick their own.
What about data protection and GDPR?
Respondents need no account – they open the link and answer. You decide question by question which data you collect: ask nothing personal and nothing personal is collected. How we process data is set out in our privacy policy.
How do I analyse the responses?
Results stream live into your dashboard with a chart for every question. Raw data can be downloaded as CSV, Excel, JSON or SPSS from the Lite plan; finished result charts export as PDF, PowerPoint, Word or PNG from Plus.
