It is important to send a job confirmation email as soon as your company is done with the interviewing process. This is to make sure that the candidate you have decided to hire doesn’t get offered a job by another company.
However, there are some things that you have to keep in mind while writing a job confirmation mail:
The tone of the email should be straightforward and formal. People do not usually like reading large paragraphs of text, hence, you should divide your email into well-defined sections so that it is easy to go through the mail.
The email should include all the important information that a candidate should acquire before joining the organization. This includes joining date, salary and compensation, company policies, bonus, and benefits, notice period, reporting structure, etc.
The email should also let the candidate know about the documents she needs to sign and report and the processes that will take place in the joining process.
Possible Subjects:
- Job Offer letter/mail
- Job Confirmation letter/mail
- Job Appointment letter/mail
- [position_name] position offer: Eg- Front-end developer position offer
