What to say when quitting a job you just started?

Honesty is always the best policy. If you found a different job with better benefits, better hours or more pay, you should tell your boss that is why you have made the decision to leave. If you are unhappy about something, telling your boss can help. Be professional and polite, but relay your concerns. Not only will you feel better, but your boss may be able to use the information to make the work environment better in the future.

Thank them for the opportunity and explain to them that you don't think you're a good fit. Most managers will be understanding.

One way you could go about it is by saying that the job was not what you expected and that you think that the company that you are at is not right for you (or you could say that you feel as though the position is not right for you)

Once you've decided to resign, arrange to meet face to face with your supervisor so you can discuss your resignation in person. Be prepared to explain why you're leaving. If possible, share reasons that center on elements of the job that don't fit your skills or interests.

Be honest and open - tell them why you are quitting, even after a short time. Practice what you are going to say out loud beforehand so you are confident in it.

I appreciate the opportunity you all have given me but at this time I can no longer continue my employment with this company.

Thoroughly understand your reasons for doing it, consider it and if you do decide to go through with it then have a plan ready before you do, so that you are taking a step forward or sideways rather than a step back in your life.

Write a two weeks notice. Give them a heads up at least (if you can). Don’t feel bad for quitting. Things happen and your reasons are your own. Do what you need to. You can look up what to say in your letter. Just don’t forget to apologize for having to leave and thank them for the opportunity they’ve given you. Good luck.

Just tell the truth. Anything along the lines of "This was a great kick-start for me and my future, but I think I can move on to bigger and better things for myself." Would be an acceptable answer.

If you have a valid reason for quitting, you can use that. A valid reason would include (but not limited to): medical reason that might need a physician's note, family obligation that is urgent enough for you to leave work, or personal issue that requires you to leave work.
