I quit, and it didn't even seem like anyone cared?!

Interview Boss

You’ve handed in your resignation and maybe even felt guilty about leaving your team in the lurch. But instead of a heartfelt send-off, you notice you’re left off meeting invites, your projects are quietly reassigned, and your manager suddenly feels distant. By your last week, it’s…crickets. Was none of it appreciated? Did you not matter after all?

In this week’s episode, Sarah and Emma unpack why a quiet exit can sting so much and why it’s usually not about you at all. From the loss of identity that comes with leaving a role, to the awkward “ex” dynamic of wanting closure from people you’re walking away from, we’ll help you reframe the silence and see it for what it is: practicality, not personal rejection.

We’ll share why colleagues might not know how to give you the farewell you expected, how to separate your worth from your exit, and practical ways to create your own closure so you can leave on a high note.

“I can’t thank you enough for all the tips and support through the process of resigning from a job I never liked, to getting my dream job. At one point, I started loosing faith, because even when I was having the best interviews, thanks to your guidance, they would always go for someone with more experience. Today I had the interview that changed everything, it felt like I didn’t need to try so hard and I still got offered the job. I blame the endless hours listening to your tips, because interviewing went from something I used to dread to a fine art where I could sell myself and not even have to think about it. For now, it’s the foot in the door, it’s a short term contract, but it’s in my dream company, so I can only see possibilities afterwards. And even if there is nothing after the contract runs it’s course, I can’t put into words how much you have helped me to understand that the right job is worth waiting for and that I am worth it. Thank you again for everything!"
