When The Job Search Is Over, Be Sure To Say Thanks
Using a job acceptance letter when offered a position shows true
professionalism. It is a way of saying "thank you" to the person
who hired you, and giving them assurance that they made the
right decision. You have presented yourself to them as a
professional with your resume, cover letter, reference sheet,
salary history, letters of recommendation, follow up note, and
any other personal marketing materials you've used while job
hunting. You went out of your way to make sure that the
interview went well, and probably did your homework on the
company before going in for that first interview. Now using a
job acceptance letter will be a capstone on all your work, and
perfect the positive professional image you've tried to convey
throughout the job search and hiring process.
Of course, if you've never written one before you may have
questions as to what it should contain and how it should look.
Here are the basics: it should be on the same paper your resume
and cover letter were on, preferably a light gray or ivory
linen, laid, or parchment paper or one of the new sandstone
papers. It should have a letterhead that matches the other
personal marketing materials you've used. It should be
personally addressed to the decision maker who hired you. The
job acceptance letter should also be placed in either a matching
business sized envelope, or a large white envelope to avoid
folding, and should be personally addressed. If your own
handwriting isn't very legible, print the address, or have a
friend with great handwriting
address it for you.
It should also be short. Show that you respect the hiring
manager's time by being direct, while still polite. You can say
everything you need to say in two or three paragraphs which are
quick to read. When writing the job acceptance letter be
straightforward and professional. Let the hiring manager know
that you are looking forward to being a part of the team at your
new company. Let him or her know that you appreciate the
opportunity and will do your best. Let the decision maker know
that you are aware of any special conditions of the job offer,
and will adhere to them. That will avoid any misunderstandings
down the road. Also make sure that the job acceptance letter
states that you understand the starting date of your employment
with this new organization, and assure the hiring manager that
you will be there on the specified date, and time, ready to get
busy. Sign it using blue ink in your pen so that they know it is
not a photo copy, and hand deliver it to the decision maker's
administrative assistance. In this manner you will show yourself
to be a true professional, and someone they will want to work
with in the future.
