How to Quit a Job You Just Started

• Before jumping off from the ship it is important to take the necessary precautions and lay out the possible path you've been offered or plan on taking.
• If you received another job offer, make sure that you have it in writing (with a confirmed salary and benefits package) to avoid embarrassment if and when the offer is rescinded.
• If the reason you're leaving can be addressed with a supervisor, try bringing it to their attention.
• Most importantly, before leaving make sure everything on your end is settled -- such as finances or pending job applications.

Giving out a formal notice to your employer is a considered standard and a courtesy Letting them know why you're leaving opens up an opportunity for them to learn. A two weeks notice benefits both you and the employer.

It gives them time to scour candidates for the position and it gives you enough time to tie any loose ends and hand over any projects that you were working on to someone else. This will make your exit less dramatic and well appreciated.
