Think and move on, rethinking leads to confusion and confusion leads to half hearted efforts which finally leads to half hearted results.

Hehehe .. Mahip .. SB pe baat hui nahi .. ki search option ka sahi istemaal
Ya , i think the ppl who already have converts ( SIIB, SIBM, SCMHRD, IBS ) will be busy framing their letters.

But the first thing that u need to write before the resignation letter is letting them know verbally.
After that everything is just a formality.

My PM is already after me, beta kab chod ke jaa raha hai , jaldi bol mujhe ..

Re: Help in writing - Resignation Letter - 05-03-2007, 07:31 PM

I've resigned twice

Both times blunt, to the point and no singing praises of how wonderful it has been to work for this esteemed organization. First time I cited personal reasons and the second time "further studies to pursue a career in management"

Keep the resig letter short and save all ur gassing skills for the farewell email
