Hi guys, can I resign with a verbal offer from another firm? Or should I wait for a written one and then resign?

Wait for the written

You can resign even with no offer at all!

Verbal doesn’t mean anything, the offer goes through other departments as well prior to being sent written. I’d honestly wait, especially with the current state of the world.

Wait for a written offer with a written start date with this environment.

Not only that, wait until you are closer to the start date.

I’d say it’s a good practice to always get the written offer.

If you have any disputes with your future employer regarding pay, benefits, etc., having that written offer will give you more recourse than just a verbal offer.

Agreed. I’ve gotten two verbal offers this month and one was paused/taken back on Friday 😭 so think it’s for the best. With things reopening hopefully it doesn’t take too long but things are changing quickly.

Wait. For. Written.

you can resign without an offer.

I’d like to be more proactive about toddler psychology, what’s to come and how to react/ teach. TY!
