in this day and age it's normal to
change jobs a few times in your career
it's also normal to cross paths with
people you used to work with your former
coworker might even be your boss one day
so let's dissect what it looks like to
not just leave a job but to leave a job
well for years
athletes have used science and data
analysis to improve now we are doing the
same for jobseekers everywhere this is
job signs meet Ted she's a Sales
Director at an e-commerce company and
just accepted a new role in the
publishing industry before making any
moves be honest with yourself about your
reasons for leaving writing all them
down is a good place to start this helps
make sure your decision wasn't made on
the spur of the moment leaving without
another job offer could affect your
finances it's important to keep these
things top of mind to manage stress
after you've written your reasons circle
a couple that you might want to share
with your employer this will help you
feel more confident and help them get
feedback on the company once you've made
your decision
find time to meet with your employer and
give them your two weeks notice it's
always best to resign from your job in
person and give as much notice as you
can
I hate it here this place sucks I'm
bored and I don't get paid enough oh
hold it there Ted you should definitely
be honest that's good but know that when
you're giving your answers the employer
might interpret them differently so
let's take a step back remember you want
to stay positive in your answers your
goal is to leave on good terms and if
you don't feel comfortable there is no
need to disclose where you'll be working
in the future well I've learned more
than I could have imagined here you took
me under your wing and I am so thankful
for that but I'm actually gonna be
taking on a new role that's in
publishing
I feel I can bring a really fresh new
take there and they're giving me brains
to build a team from the ground up you
deserve to have you on teams of all-time
good for you
perfect now's a good time to submit your
formal letter of resignation let's take
a quick look at the parts that comprise
it time and date address statement of
resignation last day of work statement
of gratitude next steps or important
information and your signature done the
next few steps are a little easier don't
just leave on a dime prepping a
co-worker to take over your role is key
to a smooth transition so typically what
I would do is go ahead and export the
file here and then reach out to the team
and just let them know it's all packaged
up and lastly be thankful sure your
gratitude whenever you can you can also
provide your employer with constructive
feedback big plus when all said and done
ending on a positive note and keeping
that bridge intact can be huge for your
career this was the breakdown of leaving
a job well until next time
