Immediate Resignation Letter

Adopt a business format for writing the immediate resignation letter. Left justify the date, your name, your supervisor’s name and your company’s name and address. Address the supervisor with the word “dear” and if you do not have one then address it either to your company’s human resource department or simply write “to whom it may concern”.

Inform your employer that you are resigning from your post effectively and immediately. Tell him how sorry you are for not informing him earlier. Stress upon the fact that you wanted to notify him earlier but your circumstances were such that you were unable to comply with the 2 week notice period rule. If you are a contractual employee, then you must request your employer to waive the notice period requirement and permit you to leave at once.

Mention that you will always remain available to answer any questions that the employer might have regarding the projects that you had been handling. If there is a colleague that is capable of taking over some of your projects then it is best to notify the employer about him as well. It is also important to thank the employer for the work opportunity he had given you.

End the resignation letter effective immediately in a courteous manner by writing “Yours Sincerely” and then write your name followed by your signature. Do remember to make a copy of the resignation letter for record keeping.

To [Manager or Supervisor]:

I am writing this letter to tell you about my immediate resignation from the post of [Your Title] because of the issues that were raised during the appraisal interview that was held recently.

I am aware that changes are inevitable in the company, but I was a little disappointed to see that the changes being made did not take into the account of employees' desires who have been working for the company for a long time. The changes that have been made in my department have made it impossible for me to work as [Your Title] and I am left with no choice except for stepping down from my position.

The two years that I have spent at [Company] have been very valuable for me and I wish that you are able to find someone to replace me quickly. I am grateful for the opportunity you offered me and wish you a bright future.

Sincerely,

Signature

No matter whether leaving the job is an excitable thing for you, your immediate resignation letter must be written in an apologetic manner. Mention how sorry you are for having to resign in this manner and thank the employer for giving you the chance to work at his company.

Never write anything insulting in the resignation letter about your company or your supervisor. Moreover, don’t gloat about the new job because of which you are leaving your current job. Remember that you might require the employer to give you a recommendation in future so write your resignation letter accordingly.

A resignation letter immediate must contain the reasons why you are quitting your job at such a short notice. The letter must be at least three paragraphs in length. Do remember that simply writing that you are leaving your job does not suffice for a resignation letter that is served without prior notice.

Besides this, it is best to provide your employer with your future contact information in case he has some questions to ask you. Moreover, make sure that you notify the employer about the status of the projects that had been assigned to you.

If there is any amount of money that the company owes you in term of back pay, retirement funds or back pay, then you must notify your employer in the resignation letter. It is your legal right and you must make sure that the company issues the sum of money you are entitled to get with your last paycheck.
