Job Offer Letter Sample Download
Displayed below is a job offer letter sample written in a full-block business letter format. Employers may use it as an example to write their own, while it gives job applicants an idea of what to expect.
You may download the job offer letter sample displayed below. The file is in rich-text format (.rtf), which is compatible with most word processors such as Microsoft® Word.
For a plain-text version of this job offer letter sample (e.g., for inserting into the body of an email), just highlight the text below with your mouse and copy and paste it to a plain-text editor, such as Windows® Notepad. You might lose some of the job offer letter format, such as the bullets (?) in the letterhead. But it's easy to fix and will remain intact for the most part.
When modifying this job offer letter sample, be careful about that to which you commit in writing. A job offer letter could become a legally-binding employment contract of sorts, should the employee later dispute what you offered vs. what he or she actually received on the job. So, make sure that you can deliver what you offer in writing. (Consult legal council if you have any doubts about writing a job offer letter.) But do include as many details as practical in your job offer letter or as attachments or enclosures, so that your job candidate has enough information to make an informed decision. Remember, candidates might receive other job offers.
Consequently, you might be competing for their attention.
