Letter of Resignation

A resignation letter is a statement to your current employer, announcing your departure as an employee or leave a position that you currently held in an organization.

Resignation Letter Writing Tips A basic resignation letter should include the fact that you're resigning and the last day you will work. It's fine to thank the employer for the opportunities they have provided to you, as well. Keep it Brief. Your resignation letter should be brief and to the point. You don't need to include lengthy explanations about why you are resigning. When to Include a Reason. If you're resigning under positive circumstances - you're relocating or going back to school, for example, its fine to include the reason. If you're resigning because it's a bad job, there's no need to mention the gory details. It's better to keep them to yourself. Offer to Help. If it's feasible, offer help during the transition and afterwards. The offer may not be accepted, but it will be appreciated. Include a phone number and email address where you can be contacted. Don't Vent. Even if hate your job, don't say it. Your resignation letter will be placed in your permanent employment file and it's important that it doesn't contain much more than the basics.
