How do I resign? Please help!!?

Question

I've been at this company for 16 months. I was recently promoted a month ago to a new position. unfortunately, it's not a good fit for me as i thought it would be. I would like to resign to go back to school in the Fall full time. I'm just not sure how to tell my boss or what to say in my resignation letter.

Answer 1

Dear ----,

This is to notify you that I am tendering my resignation effective (enter the date, give 2 weeks notice).

I appreciate the opportunities I have had at (write the company name).

I have decided to pursue my studies full time and wish (write company name) all the best in the future.

Do not get into anything about the job or lack of fit or anything else.

Sincerely, your name, date

Tell your boss when you give him the letter that you appreciate all of the support and opportunity he/she has given you, but that you have decided to go back to scholl full time.

no one can really argue with that.

Answer 2

Listen to MOM

Answer 3

I have a friend who just wrote a resignation letter today. She will just bring it into the manager's office when he return's to work on Wednesday. Just visualize yourself doing this so you won't be so nervous. The first answerer gave you a good answer. It is normal in life to make changes & you are doing a good thing so you can feel good about what you are doing.
