Notice period and start date planner
Offers often come with the question “When can you start?”. Work out a realistic earliest date before you answer.
Takes about 1 minute
Pick a date and your earliest start date appears here.
This is simple date arithmetic: your notice period in whole weeks, moved to the next weekday. Your contract decides how notice really works, and the new employer may agree a different date. This is not legal advice. Nothing is saved.
Before you accept
Check the offer carefully, and keep your referrer in the loop.
