Quitting Your Job the Right Way in Different Situations

The best-case scenario is to leave your job gracefully and to stay on good terms with the people you’ve worked with. 

Even after you resign, there are still things they could do for you such as:

  • Leaving a good reference
  • Referring you to their network
  • Maintain a good reputation

You’ve Been Employed for Several Years

This one is for those of you who are pleased with your experience over the years of your employment. 

Before submitting your resignation letter, tick everything off your to-do list to make sure you leave no loose ends. So that means cleaning up your desk, completing all the tasks that won’t be carried over until the next term, etc.

This makes the transition process easier for both you and your employers.

You can also project a graceful tone of voice and let them know you’re thankful for having had the opportunity to work for them.

You’ve Had a Negative Experience 

On the other hand, not everyone has a positive experience during their time of employment. 

If you’re leaving because of a problem inside the company, it’s good to address this in your letter of resignation. At the very least, you’re giving them feedback to improve their work conditions in the future. 

There are ways to express your disappointment or frustration professionally. Let your manager know too that you’re open to discussing these issues further if necessary. 

You Just Want to Quit Your Job 

Some of you might not fit into any of the 2 categories above. All you simply want to do is quit your job for your own personal reasons. 

In this case, you can keep your letter short and politely notify employers of your resignation. 

As mentioned, there’s no need to state your reasons. The more important factor is that you write out your letter appropriately and give them notice ahead of time so that they’re better prepared to fill the gap when you resign. 

Notice of Resignation 

Give at least a 2 week notice period to your employers.

It’s courteous to let them know of your resignation in advance to ease the transition. Leaving your job without any prior notice could cause a dispute and damage your reputation as a professional.

Resignation Letter With Immediate Effect 

It’s possible to resign immediately but you need to have a valid reason. 

Otherwise, it comes with serious consequences. One of them is damage to your reputation and potentially getting sued because of a breach in contract.

However, there are some exceptions where it’s reasonable. These instances may include:

  • Life crisis
  • Not being paid
  • Mental health
  • Harassment in the workplace
  • Unethical environment

The Length of Your Resignation Letter

The length doesn’t need to cover an entire page. Keeping it as short as 2-3 paragraphs is more than enough. Unless you’d like to provide some feedback on your experiences, you can add more details in the main body of your resignation letter.

How to Write a Resignation Letter to Your Manager

1. Address Your Letter

Your resignation letter should be written formally as a professional in the workforce. Similar to a cover letter, you’ll need a header. This contains the following information:

  • Full name
  • Location
  • Date
  • Email address
  • Phone number

Essentially, it’s your main background information including your contact details.

2. Make a Statement of Resignation in the Opening Paragraph

The first line to start the letter is an opening salutation to greet your manager such as:

  • Dear Mr. Jones
  • Dear Ms. Wanderwald
  • Dear Sir/Madam

After you’ve addressed the person you’re writing to, start by setting the agenda. That means stating what this letter is and what you’re notifying your employer about. 

Here are a few examples:

  • It is with regret that I’m informing you of my resignation from…
  • Please accept this letter as my formal resignation from <company>...

The purpose of the first sentence or paragraph is to inform them of your resignation. This doesn’t need to include too many details aside from that. But if you’d like to add more, then you could mention why you’ve come to this conclusion. 

3. Inform Them of Your Last Day of Work

The main body is where you talk about your experiences and inform them of the date you’re officially leaving. 

Here are a few examples:

  • My last day of work will be at <date>
  • As per the contract, the date of resignation will be on <date>

In this paragraph, you can also show your appreciation for the positive experiences you’ve had during your time of employment. This way, it shows that you’re grateful for the skills gained and developed, in addition to how you’ve grown as a professional.

4. Express How You Feel

State how you feel about the time you’ve spent with them as an employee. If you’re grateful, mention it. If you’re disappointed, mention it and explain your reasons. 

In your resignation letter, you also have the opportunity to give your manager feedback about your experience for future candidates. However, make sure you’re maintaining formality as you express yourself. 

5. Include the Next Steps

Make the next steps clear before signing off. 

It’s good to include a gesture that you’re open to further assistance if necessary. Offer your best wishes and let them know if there’s anything you can do to make the transition smoother when you resign.

6. Closing Salutation

Finish your resignation letter with a closing salutation followed by your signature underneath. Here are a few examples:

  • Yours sincerely
  • Sincerely
  • With gratitude
  • Regards
