The prompt

Cover: 1. Notice and paperwork - resignation acknowledgment or termination letter, separation agreement if any, confirming last day. 2. Pay and benefits - final pay timing and contents (unused leave, commissions, expenses) [CONFIRM LOCAL LAW], benefits end date, continuation notices, retirement plan info. 3. Knowledge transfer - handover plan, documentation, client and stakeholder reassignment. 4. Access and equipment - agree with IT when access is cut (at the moment of the conversation for involuntary exits), equipment return, and who owns the detailed IT access checklist. 5. Legal and confidentiality - reminders of ongoing obligations, return of company information. 6. Communication - team and client announcements, out-of-office. 7. Exit interview and alumni or rehire eligibility note. 8. Records - what to retain, for how long, and secure storage. Also give me a short, warm farewell message template for voluntary exits. Use only the dates and details I provide; mark anything unconfirmed as [CONFIRM].

How this prompt is built

This prompt follows the RTF structure (Role, Task, Format). RTF tells the model who to be, what to do and what shape the answer should take. It is the quickest structure that still gives noticeably better results than a bare request.
