You have decided to leave your job to take another. It's risky business when you leave one employer for another.
Some people resign from their jobs without a firm job offer.
Others jeopardize their employee benefits because they did not think ahead before they resigned from a position. When resigning from a position, your goal should be to make a seamless transition to your new job without missing a day s pay and with increased benefits. A written contract with a definite employment term may protect you if the prospective employer changes his or her mind or decides to fire you within a short period of time. If your new employer is hesitant about signing such a contract, you may want to reconsider the offer. Check your current contract specifications.
