What is the best way to word a resignation letter? We had a 90 day probation period and I would like to quit.?

Question

Here's what I'm thinking: Per our agreement...(blah blah blah) Any ideas?

Answer 1

depends on why you want to quit.... just tell them that you want to terminate the employment relationship because (yada yada yada)

I like yada yada yada, better than blah blah blah more professional ;o)

Answer 2

That depends on what your profession is. White collar or blue collar work? But actually, if you've only been with this company for 90 days, is a fancy formal letter of resignation required. Like I said, that would depend on if your job is white collar or blue collar work. Add more details, you might get a better answer from others.

Answer 3

Word it in such a way that if you wanted to come back some time in the future, you could. Don't burn any bridges.

How about starting out with:
Thank you for the opportunity to work here, I have enjoyed it and learned from it. Unfortunately for personal reasons I find that I must leave. Hopefully my leaving at this time will not cause inconvenience. Please let me know if you would like me to spend some time providing a transition of my work to someone else.

Answer 4

Make it sound professional. What you wrote, "Per our agreement...", sounds like a good way to start. Just let them know that you are going to follow other opportunities.

Answer 5

If you know for a fact that you would never want to be hired back there, tell them that while you appreciated the opportunity to work with them it is "not a good fit" and you are going to have to move on.

Answer 6

Dear Supervisor,

I quit!

Answer 7
