Letters and emails for a job change
A job change comes with writing that is easy to put off and awkward to get wrong. These guides give you plain advice and copyable templates for the messages around a move: the thank-you email after an interview, a resignation letter, and what to say when you give two weeks' notice. Each one explains what to include and what to leave out, then offers versions for different situations. Check your contract and your employer's policy first, because notice periods and requirements vary by country, employer and role. Write every message as if your next employer might read it one day.
