How to write a resignation letter

Some important things that need to be included in the resignation letter are mentioned below:

  1. Firstly, you have to let your employer know that you are leaving the company and the date on which you are leaving.
  2. Next, do not forget to thank your employer and appreciate the time that you have spent with the company.
  3. It is better to write a resignation letter on paper but if you are required to send a resignation email, it should also be very brief, professional and to the point.
  4. If you wish to mention the reasons of your resignation, never criticize your employer or say something negative about co-workers, colleagues, or your superiors. It’s better to keep the reasons to yourself.
  5. According to the standard practice, two weeks’ notice should be given to the company while resigning.
  6. Always try to talk positive when you talk about your resignation with your colleagues. Don’t bad mouth your employer. Try to highlight how the company has helped you grow and achieve success. Although you have decided to leave and move on but there’s no point in criticizing your job. It is always advisable to maintain a good rapport and understanding with your old employer.
  7. Do not exaggerate your new job. Even if you have got a better job, do not brag about it.
  8. Do not forget to say goodbye to your co-workers, subordinates and superiors while leaving your job.
