Tired of your job? Want to quit and work somewhere better or somewhere else? Want to start your own business and you’re wondering how to quit while not trying to make your boss mad? Writing a handwritten note for resignation is no longer working now, everything from offering letter to resignation letter everything works on eMail.
There’s a plus point of this digital world, many things get easy, writing an email is one of those things so whether it may be joining or resignation email.
Though it may seem easy, not everyone drafts it the way it should be. Writing Email has many aspects or formats to look upon, if the drafted email satisfies all the aspects then it can be called a perfect email.
Undoubtedly drafting an email is a skill, and not everyone is familiar with it. Even if you are drafting a resignation email, a proper way can put a nice impression on whomever it may concern.
So, we are coming up with the idea of drafting a resignation email properly or decently.
Tips For Writing Resignation Email
1) Two Weeks Notice Letter/Mail
Two weeks notice letter is much similar to a resignation letter/mail. This will be your first step towards resignation. Here you intimate your concerning authority about your plan of resigning from the firm two weeks earlier. So even a recruiter can arrange for another capable person to continue the work. This is the formal way to contacting your decision of resignation.
2) The Name of Your Job Position
Mentioning the name of the position of your work can specify more things to the reader, as they can know which space is vacant so they can hire a new employee to handle that position.
3) Date of When You are Resigning
As mentioned the date of drafting, even the date of your day of resignation is also important, as it will help the H.R and manager to keep the track record of the leaving date of their employees.
4) Gratitude Towards Your Recruiter
As you have worked in an organization it’s a simple but very effective way to express gratitude to your recruiter or manager that they gave you the chance to work and gain experience. This shows that you are happy leaving the organization and looking towards better things.
5) A Highlight of Your Work Span
Though adding this point is completely optional, it’s up to you whether you have to mention it or not. Adding the highlight of your work span can give a quick glimpse of your contribution to the manager.
6) Offer Training to The Replacement
When you free up space there will be someone else who will take up the charge and in some scenarios that person can be fresher or new to that work. So your offer to train that trainee can give a gesture to your decision. It will show that even if you are leaving the firm you still have affection towards your firm and job.
7) Greetings and Wishes For The Future of Your Company
As of now, you have been a potential employee for your organization so even now when you have to leave you have to be formal and ethical to maintain your value. Greetings and wishing your organization great success ahead will depict that you still respect your organization and you will be optimistic towards it.
8) No Need to Give All Details
You don’t need to go into deep details of the reason why you are leaving or about your plans after the resignation, but still, if you want to then you can keep it minimalist like you are leaving because of some family circumstances, or moving to some other career, etc.
9) Thanking Them
Thank your HR department and manager for giving you the opportunity and to express your skills, tell them that you’ve learned many things from their organization and you will be grateful. Express your gratitude for the beautiful experience you had.

I’m writing this to inform you that I am resigning from the post of Political Science Professor for St. Charles High School with effect from June 1.
I have decided to resign from my position as I feel that my skills have been up to their limits in the environment I’m currently serving under. Hence, I believe that it is time for me to experience something new and thus have found a different teaching role that would give me greater exposure to hone my teaching skills.
Indeed it will be a very sad phenomenon to say goodbye to St. Charles High School as I have started my career from there. The confidence and creativity I’ve developed over the years are because of the trust and belief that the entire faculty have put in me. I will be forever in debt with you all.
I feel that I’ve been given an excellent opportunity by the school and I wish the teachers and the students of St. Charles High School has great success ahead.
