The time of resignation is quite an exciting time and at times stressful. There are many circumstances that can result in people resigning from their jobs. It could be a new job offer, taking a sabbatical, taking a new challenge, being forced to resign, taking up studies among other reasons. Whatever your reason for resignation, never get carried away and lose focus.
When you resign, be a person of a few words. Do not start ranting in a resignation later or shouting at people because you have found a new job. Avoid resigning and sending your letter whilst in the aeroplane at could nine, because you cannot face your former employers. Some cheeky job seekers resign when they are in another country.
It is always important to consider your legacy with an organisation, even if you don’t agree on remuneration, working conditions and other issues. Always leave an organisation with your integrity intact.
Avoid becoming a victim of your success and stepping on people who once employed you. This is because life is unpredictable. A large number of people have had to come back to their former employers seeking employment and have been readmitted, whilst others have not. Then it is essential for any job-seeker to know that some employers before giving you an offer, will call all your former companies to check how you were treating them and how you worked. The reason for leaving is also requested at teams.
Even when your contract is terminated or it is not renewed, remain calm and leave diplomatically. It is essential that as a job-seeker you arrive and depart properly. Never mind how they treated you, ensure that you do not give them room to put you in a corner whenever background checks are being done in future. A good name is better than riches. In order to become a well-sought after professional, manage your arrival and departure,
