Can someone walk me through how to resign? (srs)
I know this sounds extremely autistic but I have never done this before and may be in a position to do so soon, so can you guys please give me a walk through of how to resign?
Like does this tend to be done at a particular time of day/week? How do you initiate the conversation?
On my floor we don't tend to go off to talk in meeting rooms 1 on 1 very much, we just talk right there and then, so I feel like if I ask him if we can go for a quick chat or whatever then everyone within earshot will instantly know what I'm about to discuss with him. Is this just something that unavoidably happens when you resign?
Any advice about what to say etc would be much appreciated.
If you’re resigning, you’re resigning anyway and people will know within a few minutes of you leaving that meeting room.
Just take your staffer for this chat and tell him about the new opportunity you found and how it better suits your interests. I would advise telling the rest of the team yourself too, rather than them being told that you’re leaving
Some people send two resignation letters:
a) to their manager
b) to their team to encourage others you’re moving on to something different and to keep in touch etc.
Are you asking about what to say or are you trying to ask about how to go about doing it?
For the former, just be up front tell your immediate supervisor. You should write a short document that states that you are resigning effective as of X date, give at least 2 weeks notice, 3 is better. It doesn't matter if they will walk you out of the building that day it is the proper way to do things and not burn bridges.
Other things to consider is to try and not resign in the middle of a big cruch time for your team if possible. In IB it is difficult to do this as most teams are insanely busy right now.
At the end of the day this is a normal thing and it is expected for 90% of your class. Just be polite and considerate about it, continue to diligently work if you are expected to continue before your stated last date.
Truf. In several lines of work it's expected that "the bird will eventually fly the nest" for the next step in their career. If anything, with out promotion or internal lateral, you'd be looked down upon for just sticking around (until they flat out boot you as deadweight anyways). So if anything, let's say you've built yourself a good rep and body of work there, I wouldn't be shocked if your manager insisted to be your first reference for your next employer. And yes, so they can brag that they taught you everything you know and molded you into such a top pick. But doesn't mean you can't benefit either.
