  3. Choose the option that works best for you;
  4. Make sure they understand that they cannot discuss your resignation with anyone else until you've informed your employer by yourself;
  5. Talk to someone from your new job to see if you can have a longer notice period;
  6. The new company may offer to pay your notice period if your employer files a claim, or they could offer another form of compensation;

  13. Speak with your HR Department to find out when your last payment will be made, process for unused holiday allowance and how to transfer any portable pension plans and other company benefits.
