Acceptance Letters Template

An offer extended in writing will require you to respond. It is a courtesy to let the prospective employer know your final decision in writing. Do not accept an offer unless you are certain it is what you want. To initially accept an offer and later decline reflects badly on you. The basic components of an acceptance letter include the following.
  • Your understanding of the terms of employment and any other arrangements (i.e., relocation, expenses, incentive plans, etc.). These should have been included in your written offer.
  • A thank you for the offer.
An acceptance letter may be structured as follows:
  • Paragraph 1 (Enthusiastic Yes) — Let them know you are happy and are accepting the offer. Be sure to include the title of the position.
  • Paragraph 2 (Terms of Agreement) — Clarify the terms as you negotiated and understand them to be (i.e. salary, start date, benefits, etc.).
  • Paragraph 3 (Thank you) — Thank the employer for the opportunity. Reiterate your enthusiasm for beginning your new position.

How to Write retirement letter tips

“All good things come to an end” and so must an individual’s work tenure. A Retirement Letter is the one that an individual writes when s/he is retiring from work. The retirement age however differs from country to country and profession to profession. Say for example, the retirement age of government officials is earlier than the ones working in the private sector. In earlier days retirement actually meant that the individual will sit at home and do nothing or might just do some voluntary work. But times have changed. These days people do have some job offers after retirement also that are remunerative for the concerned individual. A Retirement Letter is the last parting letter written by an individual to either her/his superior in the organization or to the organization itself.
