The answer is probably best characterized as "it depends." Assuming it is clear from the letter that both employer and employee intended June 30 as your last day of employment, then the effective date of your resignation is the close of business on June 30. You can test this as conclusion by asking yourself whether you rendered any services after 12:01 a.m. on July 1 and, accordingly, whether your employer had the duty to compensate you for services rendered after midnight.
