How to submit your resignation correctly

  1. In the letter of resignation, you must go to your employer or Human Resources, state the reasons for your departure and above all, say thank you. For example:
How to submit your resignation correctly

Gentlemen:

I hereby inform you of my intention to submit my resignation from the position I have held in the company since. The reason is due to new job opportunities that have arisen or personal issues.

In addition, I would like to thank you for allowing me to be part of this team, learn and grow professionally with you.

Finally, I am at your disposal to organize my departure and make the splice with the person who comes to occupy the position, if you consider it appropriate.

Cordially

(Your name)

(Your position and your identity document)

  • This is a point of no return. You may regret it and your boss may admit you again, but it can generate some discomfort. However, most likely, they are already looking for someone to occupy your previous position, think about it.

  • Try to speak in the first person and do not overdo it, with one page is enough for you to understand your intention and gratitude.
  • You must present the letter to your employer personally. Resignation is a serious issue, it involves new selection costs and many times we do not know who to address in the Human Resources area, so it is vital that you communicate it directly to your boss. If you are in another city or headquarters other than the company, you can do it by corporate mail.
  • Present it at a prudent time. Ideally, you should be able to announce your resignationtwo weeksin advance, maximum one month. But this may ultimately vary depending on your situation, as job opportunities may appear without warning.

Extra tip: it is a great gesture that you make known your intention to be able to make a splice with someone who occupies the position temporarily and depending on the circumstances, leave the most urgent tasks finished.
