No one should do that.
i have the recording of comapny tranzact card asking for it u want the clip
NEVER accept a counter offer. They will screw you later. Count on it. With the right skills you don't need to give ANY notice beyond today is my last day. Never tell an employer why you are leaving or do an exit interview. Employers don't like to get fired but they would fire you with no notice on a Wednesday at 3:30 PM if it suited their purpose. NEVER NEVER NEVER quit a job unless you have another job locked up or have amassed what I term as F.U. money. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS keep building your skills and be searching for your next potential job. A backup plan lets you sleep soundly at night. Never have your heart so set on something that you wouldn't accept something better !
Such wonderful advice. Thanks so much. Have heard this over the years and it is so true.
Not Wed, but Monday morning at 10am
I was fired on a Wednesday about 2-3 in the afternoon once.
but labour law in some countries will mean you have to give a reasonable amount of notice first
Why is it bad to tell the employer why you're leaving?
When one has spiritually departed the job, it’s best to take the real action and move forward with his life. I’m so glad I made that decision to quit.
True words
Spiritually departed. Boy. AND HOW.
Same here. I left my company a few months ago. I dealt with so much bull crap for over three years. Best decision ever.
Same here. Spiritually left years ago, finally got the courage to move in the physical.
I needed to hear this today. Thank you
I live the UK. I followed your steps and downloaded your resignation letter template. The class was oozing from my letter and after 5.5 years of working for this company I knew they would not be happy about my decision to leave but I thought they would be gracious and respectful. Boy was I wrong!!! The response from my Area Manager was more prickly than a cactus to say the least. I had some extra days that I accrued but not yet redeemed so I used those as part of my notice period which meant I only needed to work 3 weeks notice (my contract stated I have give 4 weeks notice). Their response was to tell me if I have found another opportunity and want to start immediately, they would be happy for me to leave immediately without working the 3 weeks notice. I accepted to leave with immediate effect. The tone of their communications to me was colder than an Alaskan winter. That was something I did not expect and honestly has left me kinda delicate because I put in some mileage for these people and made them some heft coin. Anywho….onto better things but one thing I have learned, no matter what NEVER bring sentiments into the job. Strictly business!
Sorry Sam but you’re on to greener pastures!
Hello ,Sam that type of coldness I could feel from here,it makes you wonder how people can just view a person as enemy of state instead of being gracious and respectful after 5.5 years. Strictly business! I honestly look at your situation ,myself and really anyone that works a company,owners will replace us without thought if it helps the bottom line,so no sentiment.In the end you know you,no explanation needed ,I wish and hope you are on a good path.
Oh I had a bit of that too and they tried to manipulate me as if I made the wrong decision
My partner had that. They wanted him to go immediately but would pay gardening leave. I think this is a modern thing now just in case there is an aggrieved serial killer who wants revenge or something.. it is weird now not working your notice
Wishing you much success in future career. Yes, you made hefty coin but these folks were not friends. They showed their true colors when you gave your notice. As a wise person once said, when folks show you who they are...believe them.
I resigned give 15 days and first thing i told my boss was i dont want more money he said i give you couple of days to think about it, i said is nothing to think about it , couple of days pass he said if you want more money i can get it for you,i told him im not leaving because of money i want peace of mine, Monday i start my new job.
There is nothing my company can do to keep me. It's a toxic work environment that holds no one accountable for their actions
It’s good to be clear and at least you know it’s time to move on!
I’m expecting an offer letter this week and I’m sure the company I’m leaving is going to say, oh after all the things we did for you, I’m surprised, you didn’t come and talk to me before doing this
33 yrs In and I am about to bail. I have a very specific job . 25 x 8 oncall or backup. time to go
Just an update, I did give my notice and got a lot of strange questions, I’m gonna watch my back over the next two weeks
I’m going through the same thing, only they hold me accountable. Dealing with self doubt. I must go!
I quit my my job as a registered nurse last two years ago after almost 15 years in the field. It was not an easy decision, but life is too short to dread going to work everyday. No amount of money can buy real happiness Lol 😁but friends I'm not asking you to resign from your job or abandon your business but be wise!!
So glad for you!!
I don't really like my job but I love what it provides for me and my family. This pandemic has people rethinking working
You're right ma'am what do you do now and how did you plan yourself before quitting
@@eiraantoinette6793 I run my own business and While I was still in service I planned towards early retirement, making about 2k weekly from my retirement investment portfolio trying so much to build more side hustles and extra income
@@millsjenna8606 you're making quite a fortune speaking of investing I have heard about this but I don't really know how to start can you explain?
Don’t give a two week notice. When your boss fire you or lays you off, they’re not going to give you a two week notice and I promise you that
I agree unless you have a contract which requires a certain amount of notice.
Some people do have employment contracts.
@@calvinreichelderfer4922 yes but most don’t
I agree
I have always given 2 weeks with the exception of my last employer. Every time someone put in their 2 weeks they were told to leave immediately. You should not put yourself in a position where you have no income for 2 weeks out of courtesy when you have seen that they would not do the same for you.
My coworker is great at her job. Every mid-year, she gives two weeks notice and gets a mid-year raise.
😂😂👍
I resigned from my old company and they wanted me to reconsider. They offered for me to stay per diem with full benefits. I reconsidered and stayed. It’s been almost a yr now and I’m happy to be a per diem in the company.
Is this a large corporation that offered this to you? I had a dream that an old company reached out to work with me as needed. I had consulting in mind but never thought about the option of per diem
You got my attention with your white cards & sealed the deal with the smile 😃 cup. Thank you for being brutally honest & doing all of this with clarity. I appreciate your help!
For that sweet comment, I needed to get right back to you to say THANK YOU! Love to have you on the channel Alicia!
Accepted an offer today, resigning tomorrow! Thank you for your guidance. I feel much stronger knowing I do not have to disclose answers to any and all questions my current employer may have to be regarded with professionalism during future background investigations. Keeping it simple and straightforward!
Love it and congratulations!!!!🎈🍾🎉🎊
I’m in the same boat congrats - they can’t get 2 weeks from me . Protect your mental 🙌🏻🙏🏻
I also want to add, if you accept a counteroffer and RENEG on the offer you signed at the other firm, you burnt a bridge with that company as they will most likely not look at you again after falling through on a signed deal.
@@phillyctheman that’s okay burn the bridge crispy than fried chicken
Same here. No 2weeks here
Excellent video! The process to resign starts long before the final resignation takes place. Fortunately I never had to deal with a counteroffer - agree that it should be turned down because the mind is set to move on at this point. I was also never asked to the reasons "why" I wanted to leave - I turned down upfront exit interviews which I highly recommend to ignore if asked to do. But I had supervisors who pressured me verbally to tell them where I will go. I calmly told them that I am not obliged to do so and did not give in. It is possible that they then cut you off from internal servers and files in the remaining two weeks of notice - fine, this is their weak attempt to put last pressure on, and I simply accepted this - I left with class. I left by not even telling colleagues where I went next - made a clear but polite cut. I highly recommend to leave silently and being less visible to peers in the last 14 days in the old job to avoid any kind of reasoning to be seen as bad-mouther. Another important thing: Focus own mindset on time to come and what happens next. Don't vest more energy on what bugged you in the last job, this is a closed chapter now.
wow thanks for writing this
Thank you and great advice.
Thank you for taking the time to do this video!!! Fantastic advice!! Wish I found this years ago.
You’re welcome and you found me right when you needed me! 🤗
You quit for you, your family and your health
My employer has shamed people for putting a two weeks notice so this is really nice to be reminded I don't owe them anything. Thanks for the vid!
Thank you for the advice Andrew. I have been with my current employer for 10 years,have been an outstanding employee as far as dependability and performance. I have even been doing extra work on my machine for the past year and a half because the second shift operator was injured and never came back to work. The company never filled his position and more responsibilities has been shoved my way. But over the past year I haven’t had compensation or been allowed room for advancement in the company. So,with that being said now I am currently looking for a fresh start and new employment. I will use your advice to help me correctly give my current employer the two week resignation letter.
I just started watching and already appreciate your approach. It is hard to not carry toxicity with you after you feel played at a job. It's weird to go from bright eyed and bushy tailed to cynical and jaded. Even saying resigned as opposed to quitting is a better way to put it
Don’t let them steal your sanity from you!!
If the company makes a habit of walking people out. I give them the same courtesy. “Here is my resignation letter, yes it’s effective immediately.”
😂
Regarding he first tip....chef kiss. You really understand your audience / this process.
glad you enjoyed it!
I sent my boss an email at the end of shift telling him I want to pursue other opportunity and it was not an easy decision. I’ve worked there for 15 years. I wanted to leave in good terms.
Very enjoy watching your videos and detailed explanation. Thanks for sharing your expertise!
Man.. your channel is phenomenal. New subscriber today, going to tell my circle about here. Thanks for taking the time!
You’re so welcome. Glad to have you Leo!
The Friday before you give your resignation take all your personal items home. Be prepared for them to just let you go when you give your resignation; they will not want you potentially destroying files or anything else similar. If you really do not like the employer just walk out and I say that as a business owner. Companies want two week notices and it is a joke. NO employer gives an employee two weeks notice unless it is required by law such as the WARN act.
Thank you. This was very helpful!
Thank you for this! Really helped me to put things in perspective and gave me things to check off and complete before I say my final goodbyes to my Employer. I agree with your counter offer point and know I would be one of those statistics. I really don't want to leave my employer because it's been a great job where I've had a lot of growth. However management has declined and it's time for me to move on and find new growth an opportunity elsewhere
Good luck Annie!!! 👊👍
Love your advises man. Great tips delivered in a very easily digested and approachable way.
So glad to hear this Bobby!
“… I take a week off to wrap my head - push it in the sand, whatever …” 🤣 such a great video Andy, as always 🥇
Glad you enjoyed it Karen!
Great stuff! I’m grateful I came across your channel.
I love seeing your little dog in the background while you are talking! :)
I'm grateful you're here too Cara! Yes! I have two little ones, Harley and Ginger!
@@andylacivita Hi to Harley and Ginger! 🐾
Good video, as a practice I like to get intention letter from the "new" employer to confirm they want to hire me, before I give my resignation. This way it is actionable in court if they go back on the offer and I get some cash since I am left without a job.
Andrew I have used your videos in the past. I actually today decided to take a counter offer and wanted to share. I was working in a position where I felt underpaid. I got an ok offer from a premier competitor. Once I had accepted the offer I talked with my mentor about the reasons I felt I needed to depart. Within 2 hours of a call conversation we worked out a 25 % salary increase with the upper management . This was well over the offer from the competitor and had recently gotten some boots on the ground feedback about the new role I was going to be taking. I would say this was a 1 in a million chance but though I would share in case this could help anyone else. Point #1 make sure you want to quit been on both sides of the fence through my career and changes.
Thanks Andrew
2months in or so after accepting the counter offer.. Curious about, how are you so far?
Don't show up and crap out, I laughed at this. Great tips! I am taking these steps this week. Excellent!
😄Glad you enjoyed it! Go get 'em!
Super helpful advice about following up during time between offer and start date.
👊
You are so good at delivering the information. Thank you. I got an offer this week but I'm so worried that it will end up being a very busy job with after hours. How do you recommend establishing boundaries around no after hours work before you even start. Is that something you recommend talking about. Unfortunately, I felt uncomfortable asking during the interview process
Awesome presentation. Tell them what you're going to tell 'em, tell it (preferably well, as you did), and tell them what you told them. Brilliant.
👊👊👊
This was great advice! Thanks so much! Love from Denmark!
You are so welcome!
After 2 years of working for this company and training others, always being the yes person with a 3% raise iv finally dared to say no to training a new supervisor who was hired over me i said: "I am confident that at this time, my primary focus should be on increasing my call count and maximizing my bonuses to ensure a substantial increase in my income. “Once mastered I'll be ready to assist others not only in providing excellent knowledge but also training in maximizing productivity. I’m feeling a bit burnt out at this time, so I need some time to regroup myself and improve.
Hang in there. You got this!!
This was an awesome video. Great, straight forward content presented masterfully.
You made a scary uncomfortable situation more palatable. Thank you!
Great to hear, thanks so much! 👏
I was just typing the same thing
I want to leave because I don't get recognised for the work I did. Manager took my idea stolen my work to present with CEO and he got promoted. Evil person
Hang in there. Don’t let it get to you. Sometimes we come across those kind of people in our lives. Stay upbeat and things will work out for you!
Oh my goodness, I needed that smiley face mug today. Thank you for your instruction. I have your book.
🤗
Fantastic advice man. I started my first management role thanks to your advice on interview
Love to hear it!
Your videos are sooo good crisp and to the point. Great work
Glad you like them!
So helpful! Thanks!
You’re so welcome!!
Andrew thanks for this explanatory video, I would have wish to find you long time back
You’re so welcome!!
@@andylacivita yeah sure I would have avoided a Kamikaze action, but could not predict any how, this resulted now in an unfortunate situation I am paying all the consequences, after 19 years of professional careers I have accepted and moved career to a new employer, which resulted in a terrible scenario, signed the contract but they have withrown the job offer before even starting into it....
This was so informative! Listening all the way from South Africa.
Glad to hear Gigi and hey from Chicagoland in the US!
This content is beyond helpful. It brings up points and action items that I would not have considered, plus confidence to execute them. BUT at the same time, can we all also acknowledge the contributions of the cute dachshunds passing through with squeaky toys? ❤
😂 at the time I made this video I had four of them!! We lost one of our beloveds in June. Still have three raising heck!!
This is so so so good!!!!! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I am glad you touched on follow up. My start date is 5 weeks from the acceptance date. Ive been in contact with many of the teammembers but I need to follow up with everyone to make it super clear!
Good way to go!
Very good. Tnx
Really learned a lot from this thanks Andrew
You’re welcome!!
Hi Andy, very useful video. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Hi! My situation is... 67 yrs old, worked for company 20 yrs, I have said I was going to retire in 3 odd years due to bills and supporting an elderly parent. My yearly reviews were meets expectations, my errors have increase, I feel age and stress have affected my performance. I've had one suspension without pay 2 months ago. Any other errors could and would be reason for dismal. This is not an idle threat. I don’t want to quit a job i use to enjoy. And a salary I need. I feel if i don't resign I will loose my pension. I work in NC. Thanks for being online! 😢
Holy S*** this is such an excellent video and advice! Thanks Andy!
So glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent video with excellent tips. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
This is pretty much my situation right now with the company I work for. The culture, team, and management are awesome, but my current position turns out to be a poor fit. I'm struggling to meet and maintain production standards due to my condition. I don't get to take advantage of my strengths. I'm forced to use my weaknesses, so I had to submit ADA accommodation paperwork. I've been in this position for only four months, and I want out already. I'm just too physically and mentally exhausted. I just don't have time and energy for job searching, networking, etc. I don't even know what career path or industry I want to pursue anymore. The Great Resignation has hit the publishing industry hard, with editors being totally fed up with exploitative labor practices. The editorial side of publishing is technically a white-collar sweatshop. On the other hand, the distribution end of the publishing industry-where I am right now-is straight-up grunt work a.k.a. manual labor, but it pays better than junior-level or midlevel editorial positions. So as much as I want to quit, it's hard to leave my current position and company because of the decent benefits (since day one of employment, and I want to use my dental insurance because I'm dying to get braces or Invisalign!), the pay (pretty decent for an hourly entry-level position), the steady work, and the great people I work with. I have yet to find a publisher- and author-facing position (a salaried one at that) in the company that would be a good fit. The available salaried positions so far are marketing, sales, and customer service, just to name a few, which are . . . meh.
You are an excellent teacher , very clear and easy to understand your video thank you very much .
Many thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Great advice
Hi Andy! Good morning. Love all your videos!!❤
Thanks Annette!
@@andylacivita so many of your videos I've been watching for years now and you're literally the best out there! I had an interview yesterday with a company and I might get this job. I have a couple more interviews to go and I'm super excited!
Good stuff!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I made a pay equity complaint. They let the HR person who made the decision to scam me be in charge of the investigation and make the determination. He decision was that it was okay to pay the oldest, most experienced, most educated person the least and lie and say it was the top of the range. I put in an ethics complaint. They are dragging it out while they have my boss, who has no management experience, quiet fire me. I have an offer for $15K more, to start in two weeks. I haven’t taken vacation yet this year and I want a week off in between. I’ve never given less than two weeks, but I am very tempted!
Very useful video. Good to take a step back and view situations from others perspectives, understand others motivations and divorce oneself from the insular personal perspective.
Thanks for sharing :-)
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much for explaining the counter-offer is nothing else than a manipulation tactic for having the control on their own term. Also HOW the hell you look like from the other employer?! You seems someone who can be well controled, influence and not being a free agent and taking control of your life. The compagny will make sure to get all the information and a moment to replace you.
So true!
Thanks!
Mohammed!! Thank YOU! Appreciate you man!!!
Amazing!
👊👊👊
Great advice sir👍
Thank you and you’re welcome!
Andy, most, if not the majority of, large corporations do not give live job reference checks. In most cases, it’s a 800 number you call to verify employment, and it’s a recording that verifies dates of employment and title, but it's not a live person to answer questions. You might have those one-off small companies that do it, but it's very rare these days.
True story again.
Thank you 🙏🏾
You’re welcome!
I agree, just be classy and resign. Never look back, at least that's what I was told.
That's great advice! 👍
Thank you so much
You’re so welcome!
You’re soooo good!🤩 🙌 and funny also 🤣
Thank you!! 😁
I had in the past accepted two counter offers, with two different companies, it never works, I like the advice about making contact during your notice period and also asking the new company if there is anything you can do in advance of starting
Glad it was helpful!
I liked that too
I work maintenance for a public school and have been tired of dealing with the board and my boss for four years now. I was hired as maintenance only but immediately I was made a sub bus driver which after lies about accepting a flex driver which is way more bus work than maintenance I was then put solely in charge of maintaining and setting up for games of the entire athletic facilities by myself and now I am also a custodian. 4 years ago I was in a bad motorcycle accident and broke a lot of bones including my spine being shattered. I am able to do maintenance and the athletic duties but driving a bus beats me into so much pain. After expressing this to my superiors I was told that I would not be allowed to even reduce my bus work and when I told them I was being overwhelmed by the amount of things I have to get done every day they threatened to just fire me. It’s not possible for anyone to do what I do and have everything finished and I get wrote up for things like this every October. I feel like I’m drowning for eight to fourteen hours a day. After coming home all I can do is lay down to let my back decompress or sleep. I am missing time with my family and I am currently making moves to depart. It’s really hard since this is the school I went to from k-12 and I grew up here. I know things about these buildings that no one else working there knows and I had a very hard time feeling like I matter at all. I don’t. While I was in the ICU they had a board meeting about firing me right away. I don’t understand the decisions they make and some of them I am suspicious of. It’s a shame that this is how jobs like this go for me these days but I am feeling a lot better after watching this video on how to let them know without messing up a record or cursing my reputation.
Thank you for the video and to anyone who bothered reading this much.
Hi Andy. I changed the career successfully with your guidance, beginning from your resume ending now with interviewing for senior position in a small pharma company (200). Can’t thank you enough, I am living proof that changing career in age of 45 can be very successful with your mentorship ! Now I’m interviewing for senior position and strange thing is happening. I thought they were ghosting me but they actually are not, it just takes really slow to communicate back and forth. Strange thing is that next week is my first interview and it is 30 min phone call with Director of my future department that I will be reporting to. Why ? Not even HR screening ? I don’t understand ? What’s going on ? Would you share your expertise ?
A lot of great companies skip the HR screen. Lots of companies have the hiring official do a quick screen. Good luck!
I fought mgt. and my smoking colleagues for 2 yrs. My hatred of smokers was eating me alive and made me sick dozens of times. Came to the conclusion that they would rather cater to sickness and addiction than promote health and wellness. Gave 2 days notice and quit, filed a complaint. I wish I never worked here! I hope my complaint cleans up the air.
I would never understand people who insult, belittle cause that pursuit their career....it's important to stay respectful and humble.

Talk about some quality content delivered for free. Props to you @Andrew for the contribution and real world scenarios. I am waiting to find a better storytelling content creator on job hunting. Keep up the good work. I am sure your community will only get bigger based on the material you make available.
Appreciate you Nadabe and those remarks too!!!
I needed this 4 months ago 🙃
LOL. I did have others out there: czcams.com/video/cU0a_YLK4tE/video.html. That one was from 2020!! LOL! Hope it went well my friend!
Thanks! I did use your videos intensively through the interview process for my new role. It went more smoothly than I expected (no counter offer!) so all good
Thanks 👍🏾👍🏾
You’re welcome!
Yup! I resigned, accepted a counter-offer, and 12 months later, I'm resigning again. . .`12.5 months later, I'm resigning for the second and FINAL time.
LOLOLOL
Thank you for your video - what advice would you have for someone who has been denied a 3-5month leave request. I need a break from teaching, but don’t actually want to resign. Thanks so much for your time, I appreciate it 🙏🏻
I’d quit. Take the time you need. Look for a new place when you’re ready to return!
@@andylacivita Thank you 🙏🏻
Hi Andrew, i am a big fan of yours. I was wondering whether you have any video on how to handle a job change within a very short duration.. Especially potential employer asking why do you want to change so quickly?
Hi Titatatuta! I actually a video that speaks to this on my Instagram. It’s a short video and you might be able to find it with a heading “leaving after shirt duration” or something go like that!
I recently went through this process, and HR upfront asked me where are you going? How much more are you going making? Why are you leaving? Would you be willing to accept a counter offer? I sat there in shock! I just want to leave and that's that. It wasn't a pleasant interrogation/ "exit interview".
Sorry to hear that Ben. Good thing you’re getting out of there!
In previous exit interviews I told H.R that I was going to work for OSHA and not to worry because I would be seeing them in the future.
“Congratulations, you’re now an extortionist”. That was fantastic lol. I am taking this advice and giving my 30 days so I get my PTO time and turning down any counter offers and not answering questions on why I’m leaving
😂😂😂😂👊👊👊👊
My start date is about 4 weeks out due to the holidays in November. But i talk to the hiring manager at my new opportunity every other day so we stay in contact
Nice idea!
Excellent tips, thank you very much. It's not you it's me, it's a good one.😂
😂 love it!!!
Andrew! Thank you for all of your info. I resigned from my job in social work/housing care of 13 years. I found a new job in banking; I love the industry but the job is not what was expected. How do I quit a second time or should I? It’s been 1 month 😅 (I need to vet the next job/employer more thoroughly)
It’s up to you Val. I don’t stay anywhere that makes me unhappy!!
I understand we are not obligated to give any reason for resigning, but what if I am being coerced into speaking with a senior management person who wants to have "a chat".. it's really frustrating, especially when I have zero dealings with this senior management person throughout my career. Saying no would burn bridges.... saying yes would mean she will pry or try to fish for info. From the culture here, I can tell they won't take 'this is my personal reason' as an answer!
You can do it! Any company who behaves this way doesn’t deserve your bridge.
6min3sec ahhh lovely puppy in the background😆
Just accepted a job offer for new employer. However, they will initiate the background check now. When should I tell my current employer that I'm leaving? I just want to make everything is fine on the background check. I have nothing to hide but I just want to be extra careful just in case something comes up. I don't want to be a scenario where I told my manager I'm putting in my two weeks but then the background/employment check comes in and doesn't work out.
Excellent question. You wait until the new employer gets back to you and tells you your background check is a greenlight. Then and only then do you let your current employer know you’re leaving. And, do not let your new employer force you into giving a shorter notice because you’re waiting on a background check. Good luck!
After going through an interview process and talking about salary and getting an initial offer that's way too low, how would you answer the question "what's the lowest you can do?" That question always makes me feel bad because they just want to do the minimum...
I watched your "How to negotiate a lowball salary offer" and I think I know the answer. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think I should have just walked away because they're basing the salary off the position, not my skills and abilities.
My friend, my answer would have been, “Thank you. Thank you for being so clear you a company who focuses on the bare minimum, which means we’re not a fit for each other.” I would have needed a shower after they said that to me. You’re with so much more. And I’m not even talking about money.
@@andylacivita Thank you!!
You are so right, my company giving jobs to 3th part , rather than giving me a rise or more extra hours, it's not even cheaper for them because do a crap job , and when we get the cars back from them , they put it to my board straight as a next to do..so they want me to do anyway..idiots
This video is very helpful. Thank you! I am wondering though if the length of notice should depend on the amount of time at the job. I've been at a small nonprofit for 15 years and there is a LOT of things to cover. I feel like I would leave a heavy burden on a lot of staff. I know, I know, I'm not that important. But still... thoughts?
I appreciate the question because it can be tricky. I’d still offer two weeks. You can of course offer more, but I’d concentrate on being economical.
@@andylacivita thanks! I'll give that some more thought.
I love your videos😊! They are so helpful! I really appreciate the effort and work you put into your videos to help others. I let others know about your videos.
Love to hear it Brenda!
Can you please make a video on the “Andy script” for how to ask to change your boss?
Andy what can you do if you get a better job offer at another company after you have started a new job that is not what you expected?
this video is actual good advice that isn’t just typical “quit your job” nonsense
Thank you! Glad it helped!
My answer is no. I want to grow and progress in my career. I’ve learned everything I can in my current role (for the most part), and there is no room for growth that I am interested in. There is no other position I’m interested in. I love my boss but onwards and upwards!
Hey there Andrew! Thank you for making these videos. I will file my resignation next week at my current employer to pursue a job in animation. I already got a job offer and Im just afraid that I will not have a smooth turnover period because I have tons of backlogs left. Is it possible to just finish the required 30 day turnover period even though i have not finished said backlogs?
Yes Justine. You do your best and they figure it out without you!!
Super helpful. What are your thoughts of perhaps informing your line manager personally before you put in the formal resignation?
Anything is okay as long as you out the resignation in as soon as possible after that!
Nice
