I currently have a civil service job, it's my last few weeks in probation time (60 days).
The job isn't turning into a good fit for me or them -They have told me this, unofficially.
Should I leave knowing they are going to let me go anyways OR should I wait for them to ask me to leave??

When civil service probationary is over they can dismiss you without a reason, other than it didn't work out... It is hard to get fired from a civil service job, but not during the probationary time.

If it's not working for you and your boss, then just leave. They already told you, it's not working out ,so why stick around .You
can use the time to look for another job. Good Luck on your
job searching and I hope you find what your looking for. Make
sure you get a job with good pay, with benefits or at least good pay. In the mean time think of what you really like to do and
go to a City college, State College, a private junior college. Remember Financial aid is available for those who qualify.

Write them a very polite letter, giving notice
"I would like to thank-you for the opportunity you have given me to work at your organization. As you know, I am approaching the end of my probationary period and do not feel this position is a good fit for me. Please accept this letter as my resignation. I am prepared to offer you 2-weeks working notice. I appreciate the opportunity and experience and am happy to leave on good terms.
Respectfully,
Your Name

It's better to leave because when you apply for another job they will ask you if you've eer bee fired from a job. No matter what your answer, it'll look bad. I would quit before they fire me.

Its always better to leave on your own. However, if they let you go you can file unemployment. But quitting looks better on a resume.

Better to leave first; however, try to find another job before you jump ship.

Girlfriend, wait until they ask you to leave... that way you can draw unemployment.

If you leave on your own you won't be able to collect unemployment benefits.

stay and let them attempt to fire you . you never know you might have a case of unfair dismissal , on the grounds that they failed to provide appropriate training and counselling for you . thats the beauty of labour laws . i would join a trade union now , pay my dues and let it run .
