    The key takeaways are that it's important to write a respectful resignation letter and maintain professionalism even when leaving a job for less than ideal reasons.

    Some examples of resignation letters mentioned are a simple resignation letter, a general resignation letter, a friendly resignation letter, a shorter notice resignation letter, and a letter for if the employer offers a counteroffer.

    Some tips for maintaining professionalism during the resignation process are to put your affairs in order before announcing your resignation, do your best work until the very end, and maintain a positive attitude as the company will remember how you carried yourself more than your actual resignation letter.

    "I want to thank you for all you have done for me here at (Company). It's been a pleasure
    working with you, and representing the company as your (job title).

    I have accepted an offer with another firm and have decided to tender my resignation. My
    last date of employment will be (approximately 2 week notice). This decision has nothing to
    do with the exceptional opportunity you have provided me here. You and the company have
    been more than fair with me, and I genuinely appreciate all your support.

    I wish (Company) continued success, and I want to thank you for allowing me to be a part
    of your team. Please feel free to contact me at any time if I can be of further assistance in

    Although it may be a company formality, when the time comes to leave your job, it's
    recommended you write a direct and respectful resignation letter. There's no need to compromise
    your professionalism, even if your reasons for leaving are due to less than desirable
    circumstances. You may run from an organization screaming on the inside but projecting an air
    of cool composure on the outside. Hopefully you'll find exactly the right sample resignation
    letter, or at least an idea, to fit your circumstances in the following examples. Once you have
    your letter written, don't forget to date and sign your document.

    Simple

    Dear Marvin,

    This is to formally announce my resignation. As per our company policy, I am rendering a two-
    week notice, effective today. My last day of employment will be Friday, December 8.

    I wish you and everyone at A Plus Micro good luck in the future.

    Sincerely,

    I.M. Leaving

    General

    Dear Marvin,

    This is to inform you I am resigning from A Plus Micro. My last day will be Friday, December 8.

    My experiences here have helped me define my goals, and I have accepted a sales manager
    position with another company. It was a difficult decision, but one I feel will add to my career
    growth.

    Thank you for all of your help. Please be assured I will do all I can to settle my accounts in
    preparation for my departure.

    Sincerely,

    I.M. Leaving

    Friendly

    Dear Marvin,

    It is with mixed emotions that I submit my resignation today. My last day will be Friday,
    December 8.
    In the five years I've been with A Plus Micro, I feel I've truly become a professional. You've
    been instrumental in my development and I thank you. I've been offered a position as sales
    manager, and feel it is the appropriate next step in my career.

    Please know I'll do what I can to settle all accounts and prepare them for my replacement. If
    there's anything else I can help with during this transition, please don't hesitate to ask.

    Thank you for all the opportunities.

    Most Sincerely,

    I.M. Leaving

    Shorter Notice

    Dear Marvin,

    This is to inform you of my decision to leave the company effective Friday.

    I have accepted a sales manager position with another company, and they've requested I start on
    Monday. I understand our company policy requires a two-week notice, but I hope you will assist
    me in this move. Please be assured I will do whatever necessary this week to settle accounts in
    preparation for my departure.

    I wish you and the team at A Plus Micro all the best.

    Sincerely,

    I.M. Leaving

    In the Event of a Counteroffer

    Dear Marvin,

    As per our conversation yesterday, please accept this notice of resignation, effective Friday,
    December 8.

    I am grateful for all the opportunities I've experienced at A Plus Micro, but after careful
    consideration, I've decided to accept a position with another company.

    I sincerely thank you for your guidance and generosity.

    All the best,

    I.M. Leaving
    Conclusion
    A resignation letter is just one part of the departure process. Before you make your
    announcement, start to put all your affairs in order at work. Afterward, maintain your
    professionalism and do your best work right up until the very end. The company won't remember
    your letter as much as they'll remember your attitude.

    <Recipient Address Goes Here>

    Hello,

    This is to inform you that I have accepted a position with <new company name>.

    I want to express my gratitude for a rewarding professional association during my employment with
    <current company name>.

    This decision was not an easy one and involved many hours of thoughtful consideration, particularly
    with respect to my own plans for my future. I am confident, however, that this new position represents
    a positive move toward fulfilling my career goals.

    I hope you will respect my position in this matter.

    My main thoughts now are to work as hard as possible to wrap up my projects here and turn over my
    responsibilities as smoothly as possible. However, I would like to join <new company name> as soon as
    possible. Therefore, if convenient, I would like to request that you waive my termination notice.

    Sincerely,

    Jim Karter
