To whom it may concern:
Keep your resignation letters simple, brief, and straight to the point. Letters of this
nature are not lengthy. Keep your tone professional since this is a formal document.
For the first paragraph, begin by stating that you are formally stepping down from
your role. Specify your position and the effective date of your resignation. You may
also share the reason you are exiting, such as an external opportunity or a shift in
priorities.
Express how grateful you are for the opportunities you have had in this role and how
they impacted your professional growth. You may also highlight people in the team
you have enjoyed working with.
Finally, close with a polite statement about how you want to help with a smooth
transition.
