An employer cannot reject your resignation. However, you should always follow the right process so that you're not in breach of your contract. You should talk to your employer about how and when other people are told about your resignation. For example, whether it'll be you or your manager who tells them.
Being an at-will employee also means you can quit your job anytime and without notice. Giving your employer two weeks' notice is customary, but the law doesn't require you to do this. Whether you leave your job willingly or not, you have rights.
The resignation request initiated by an employee is submitted to managers for approval. Managers can approve, deny, or push back the request. The approved requests by the manager are routed to HR administrator for approval.
