  1. 1

    I received a verbal offer from Workday on Friday and was told to expect the official offer letter by Monday. HR has been responsive, but the letter is still pending approvals. I'm in a bit of a bind because I have a vacation planned starting the week of the 15th, and I want my last day at my current job to be the 12th. Ideally, I need to give two weeks' notice today, but I don't want to resign before I have the offer letter in hand. I'm worried that the letter might take longer than expected. I'm considering whether to go ahead and resign or risk giving less than two weeks' notice. I work in a small niche market, so I really want to avoid burning any bridges. After reading some advice, I think I’ll wait until I have the offer letter signed and all contingencies cleared before making any moves. If my start date gets pushed back because of my vacation, that's just how it goes. I’ll make sure to give my current employer the proper notice once everything is finalized.
