Resignation Checklist: Things You Should Consider Before Leaving Your Company

-
Moving to another company is never an easy task. It is easier to begin a new chapter in your new company if you exit gracefully from your previous organization.



As mentioned in the previous article “Signs That You Need to Leave Your Current Job”, quitting your job requires careful thinking. If you finally made that decision to submit that much awaited resignation to your boss, there are list of items that you need to consider before saying goodbye to your organization. These are:
  • Make sure you have a guaranteed job waiting for you before you formally advice your company about your resignation .You must secure a signed contract or any document confirming your employment to your new company.
  • Personal savings must be sufficient. Transferring to a new company can be an expensive endeavor. It may involve transfer to a new apartment, new office attire, higher cost on food, etc. And in some cases, companies encounter delays in the release of new hires’ first month salary. You must have a buffer savings to support your family’s utilities and other necessities.
  • Settle all financial obligations. If you owe any dues to the company or to any of your co-workers, better settle everything at least a month before the effectivity of your resignation. Failing to do so may hamper the release of your clearance, retirement pay, or any monies the company may owe you. Never leave your company if you have unsettled personal loans from your colleagues, they may bad mouth you and they might haunt you even in your new workplace.
  • Inform your colleagues about your resignation. Personally inform them about your resignation right after submitting your resignation letter. Tell them the specific date of your last day of office so they will know what other work functions that they may or may not coordinate with you. Informing them about it will also give them time to say their respective “goodbyes” or fix bridges with you.
  • Inform your important clients or suppliers about your resignation. Your network of clients and suppliers can be a support to your new company. Advice them about your resignation but never bad mouth your present employer.
  • Attend your exit interview. Most companies undergo exit interviews as part of their resignation procedures. During the exit interview, tell them your observations about the company that you think requires further improvement. Your inputs will help them to correct their mistakes and will aid them in keeping good employees under their roof.
Moving to another company is never an easy task. Imagine the new people that you need to get along with and the new responsibilities that you need to face? It is easier to begin a new chapter in your new company if you exit gracefully from your previous organization.
