Resigning from a job can be a difficult decision, but it's important to do it the right way to maintain professional relationships and ensure a smooth transition. Here are some tips for writing a resignation:

  1. Keep it professional: Your resignation letter should be brief, to the point, and free of any emotional language. Avoid discussing any negative experiences or criticisms of the company, and instead focus on expressing gratitude for the opportunities you had while working there.

  2. Provide notice: Ideally, you should give your employer at least two weeks' notice before your last day of work. This gives them time to make arrangements for your departure and find a replacement if necessary. Be clear about your last day and your willingness to help with the transition.

  3. Offer to help with the transition: If possible, offer to help train your replacement or assist with any tasks that need to be completed before you leave. This shows that you're committed to leaving the company in good shape and can help ensure a smooth transition.

  4. Follow up with a conversation: After you've submitted your resignation letter, schedule a time to speak with your supervisor or manager. This can be an opportunity to discuss your reasons for leaving, provide feedback on your experience, and maintain positive relationships for future networking opportunities.

Remember, your resignation letter is a professional communication and should be treated as such. By following these tips, you can ensure that you leave your job on a positive note and maintain professional relationships with your former colleagues.

Lauren - Candidate

I have worked with Drake Medox Canberra as a disability support worker for roughly over 6 months now. Working at Drake is a relaxed environment and you are supported by the management 24/7 if you need help, have any questions or queries. The management/staff are approachable and very supportive. They have flexible working hours which works out great for me as a mum who has to juggle both work and family! They also try and match me with clients that they know I will get on well with. The weekly pay is a bonus. I would highly recommend working for Drake Medox!

Chiedza - Candidate

I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Drake Medox. The office staff have been fabulous to deal with. I haven't felt just like a number, and I feel that they have my client’s best interests at heart. It makes me want to always do the absolute best I can, and I have felt appreciated for my efforts. I have enjoyed sharing good "stories" with staff and felt they too had pleasure in hearing of a client’s good progress. I always feel listened to if I have any concerns, and this encourages staff greatly. I feel that overall, the "team" is a good one and have referred others because it is so good!
