How do I ask for a reference letter? I am getting ready to leave my job and my mentor has said that I can...?

Just go ahead and ask for the reference letter. Ask her if she could have it ready by your last day. If she said she would give you one, you shouldn't feel weird about asking for it. Most employers are happy to give reference letters. I do it all of the time when my students or workers decide to move on.

They wouldn't take you serious if you left, and told them,  they would think you were just mad ex-employee. go to the Boss, in strictest of sincerety and confidence and state your observations, let him decide. Then, if you don't like the way they handle it, then leave and report it to higher authority until it is resolved. Never watch an injustice, at least try to make it better.

Ask your boss for a review.  If your company has no formal process for this, it is a reasonable request to make of your boss.  If you worked for me and the company didn't support this process, I would still feel an obligation to provide you this feedback.

The standard resume line is now "References furnished upon request" centered at the bottom of the resume (sometimes italicized).  Don't waste precious space putting down names and contact info that you would be better filling in with your experience.\n\nHave a second sheet with three or so references if it is requested.  Then you also know that the company will probably really be checking them and you can let the references know to expect a call or letter.  Make the reference sheet on the same resume paper with the same letterhead.

Hmm...Write up a nice resignation letter, stating how much you have enjoyed working at his firm, your regret at needing to resign, your reasons for leaving, etc. If possible, offer to train your replacement.\n\nIn your situation, the sooner you tell him, the better. That way, he will have more time to hire and train a suitable person before your departure.

List it as you normally would. When they ask for a reference, explain the business is no longer in business and provide an alternate reference.

Say something like "I am looking to expand my knowledge and skillset."\n9 out of 10 employers won't call the past boss anyways.  And if they do, they aren't SUPPOSED to ask the details of why you left.

You should check your employee handbook to see if there are any procedures  set forth regarding resignations.  So far as I know, there is no requirement for you to say why you are leaving and I sure wouldn't volunteer a reason.  Before you mention your resignation to anyone else, tell your boss first and do it in private. You should put your resignation in writing.  Just say you are resigning effective July    , 2006.  Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be part of your company for the last      years or monhts  or set up a meeting with him with the reason being a personnel matter.  Gather all of your strength and be pleasant to your boss and all of your colleagues and don't say anything negative to anyone about your boss. I don't know how long you've been there.  If your boss coerces you to give a reason, say your taking a little break for the summer and don't say anything more and keep saying it.  Practice before hand if you must.  Take a lesson from Star Jones Reynolds--she surprised Barbara Walters in front of a gazillion viewers with her resignations and Barbara felt blindsided.  It doesn't matter how bad the circumstances. You don't want to embarrass or anger (and it wouldn't take much with this guy) someone who has been your boss.   Good luck in your future.  Don't be surprised if he says you don't have to stay for the 2 week notice period.  So, expect the unexpected and be calm.  You are in charge this time.

Rather than a letter you might want to make a phone call and set up an appointment with the Human Resources Department. Find out what  openings are available. If they like you they'll help you fit in somewhere if they can. At least you'll know. While you are waiting check into jobs with Temp agencies. Around here they jobs pay very well and are often a foot in the door to something permanent. Good luck.
