Should a two-week period be allocated for a smooth transition of responsibilities before leaving the current position?

Allocating a two-week period for a smooth transition of responsibilities is a good practice that helps:

• Transfer current tasks and knowledge to colleagues
• Complete important projects or prepare them for handover
• Maintain professional relationships and reputation

In most companies, a two-week notice period is considered standard for resignation. This allows the employer to find a replacement and organize the transition. However, in some cases, the timelines may vary depending on the contract or corporate culture.
