About why you're leaving?
About your new employer?
About your present bosses?
I still need them for future reference checks...
Kindly explain why...

I would agree with the advice "say as little as possible". Be honest, but professional. If you have to speak badly about someone, do so sparingly.
Explain you have a new opprotunity, you have to do what's best for your family, etc.... But don't stress out about it.

About leaving, only you know why your leaving, you can be honest and tell them why you can no longer work for them, or tell them you think you have gone as far as your going to go in the co. the job is just not working out for you, whatever,,,A good rule is DON'T BURN BRIDGES BEHIND YOU, I wouldn't tell them to much about the new job your going to, Let them know only what they need to know, If you were a good employee and had no problems on the job you should have no problem getting a good reference, if you worked there for two weeks and could care less, don't even think of using them as a reference, remember when you tell a supervisor your leaving a small part of him my take it personal, only because by your leaving you might be leaving him in alittle bit of a lerch, until you can be replaced.

I disagree about being honest...if you're unhappy for some reason, and you start spilling your guys, it's probably not going to reflect well on you. Just say that you are grateful for the chance you got to develop and further your skills. If you want them for future reference, you have to be positive about the company.

on your employee application form you must do the following:
do tell about reasoning for leaving dont leave it blank do mention
the salary or base pay depends on what job you had then dont
forget employer's name and adress .Do tell about new comany
the referance checks do list past and present bosses never leave them out at all finally read the contract then sign it at bottom

Be honest and tell them why. They can learn from their mistakes if they've done something that made you leave, You're obviously not happy.
Your new employer is none of their business.
Talk nice about your present bosses.Write down what and if you learned something from them. What you appreciated the most.
And that's it.

Say as little as possible-it won't mean anything. It's just procedeure. Never knock anyone nod, smile, and just say you found a better growth opportunity and thank the company for the experince. Blasting someone won't change anything other then make you look bad

its always good to be honest on these questions as if you are leaving for a particular problem as such it gives them the opportunity to rectify it for fellow workers.
Always be to the point and not get personal...stay as professional as possible. you never know if you will be dealing with them again within this firm or somewhere different.
Never cut your nose off to spite your face so to speak

Just be honest, dont say what you are probably thinking because that will backfire on you . Just give information needed and be ready to move on.Good luck to you
