Intimation Letter - Job Application

This is an intimation letter from an employee notifying his/her current employer that he/she is applying for another job. The employee is seeking for the current employer (usually a government agency) to issue a letter of no objection/reference. An intimation letter serves as a notification to the current employer but not an official resignation.

This intimation letter informs the employer that the employee is looking to apply for a position within the private sector. The employee explains to the employer, through this intimation letter, that he/she has found a suitable role matching his/her skillset. 

To complete the job application process, the employee wishes the employer/company would kindly provide a letter of no objection/reference.  A note on the urgency of this request may be added.  

This intimation letter ends by indicating that the employee will remain in his/her current position until his/her official resignation and thanks the employer for their help.
