Dear Ms. Hassan: There is really no format or template for a resignation letter. As long as it contains respect and proper language, I believe you can start writing your resignation letter. You can start by thanking company how it has shaped you or what it has taught you during your stay, then you can state your real intention. Or, you can be direct by stating your intention right at the very beginning then state all the profitable years of stay with the.company. of course.mention the effectivity of your resignation.which is 30 days at the very least. I hope this has helped in some ways. Thank you.
