Graceful Departures
There are many reasons people leave their current job. Sometimes you’ve been there too long, and need a change of pace, sometimes the new opportunity you took didn’t pan out as expected, and sometimes it’s plain old environment that is the driving force for your exit. As tempting as it may be to throw up your file folders and call it a day (especially if your reason for leaving is the latter), knowing how to depart a job gracefully, and respectfully can be one of the best things you can do for your reputation, and your future hireability.
