Letter of Offer of Employment

An Employee Offer Letter is used when a potential employer is offering someone a position of employment with their business. Offer letters are used across multiple businesses, but especially for professional positions. It's common in professional situations to make a verbal offer to the employee first and then follow it up with a written offer letter. You may also wish to use an offer letter in the situation that you interviewed multiple different candidates, and find it easiest to simply send the candidate of your choice a letter.

An Employer Offer Letter contains significant details about the position to help employees decide whether to accept the offer. These things may have already been discussed before the employee receives the offer letter, or they may be established - and perhaps, later discussed - for the first time through a written offer letter. In this way, an offer letter is a formal way of laying the groundwork for the start of the employment relationship.
