Resignation Letter Example

When it’s time for you to give your notice of resignation you’ll of course tell your manager verbally.  The company will probably ask for you to give this notice in writing as well.

The resignation letter is not a time to list all your complaints with the company.  It’s the time to tell your employer you are terminating your employment – nothing more.  Keep the letter brief and to the point.  Here’s an example:

Please accept this letter as formal notification of my resignation from (company) effective (date).

If your experience has been positive you can always add a statement that your enjoyed your tenure with the company.  No matter what, never include any negative statements or comments.
