The Best Way to quit a job
Quitting a job doesn't have to be scary! Here's how to do it professionally:
- Give Two Weeks Notice
Tell your boss at least two weeks before you want to leave. This is the standard and shows you're responsible. - Write a Simple Resignation Letter
Keep it short and positive. You can write: 'I am writing to inform you that I will be leaving my position at [Company Name], with my last day being [Date].' - Talk to Your Boss in Person
Ask for a quick meeting and explain that you're leaving. Be polite and thankful for the opportunity. - Finish Strong
Keep working hard until your last day. This helps get good references for future jobs!
Pro Tips:
- Never quit by text message
- Don't trash talk your job on social media
- Ask for a reference letter if you did good work
