  1. Decent job offers are pretty scarce these days so I hope you have a good reason for declining it.  I recommend that you send the following letter: "Thanks for the job offer - when do I start?"


  2. You need to activate your e-mail because it wouldn't go through, so will have to post it here.. . . .

    Dear sirs,

    I would like to thank you for your kind offer of employment, however, after careful consideration I have decided not to accept.

    Yours Faithfully

    Just keep it simple and to the point. You don't have to give reasons or any other information.

    I hope this helps!!

  3. Dear <name of human resources contact>,

    Thank you for your offer of a position with your company.  While I believe firmly in the mission of your organization, and appreciate the challenging opportunity you offered me, I have accepted a position with another firm that is more closely matches my current career goals.  Therefore, I must decline your offer of employment.  I do greatly appreciate all the effort and courtesy extended to me you and your company.

    Best wishes for continued success.

    Yours truly,

    Dear almost future boss (just put name):

    Thank you for the time and effort you spent considering me for a position as Marketing Director(example). I appreciate your time and effort -- as well as those of your staff. I am grateful for your offer of employment.

    Because I was so impressed with (name the company), I had a difficult decision to make. After much thought and careful deliberation, however, I have decided not to accept your offer.

    I wish you and (name the company) the best continued success. I hope our paths will cross again in the future.

    Dear Joanne Gilmore:

    I regret to inform you that something unforeseen has suddenly come up and I will not be able to report for  the Training Officer position at TecSys on December 1st as we had discussed.

    I can’t go into the details for this change here because they are highly personal in nature. But I would like to assure you that this change in plans has nothing to do with the offer you made for me to join TecSys. Up until yesterday I had every intention of reporting there for duty on December 1st as we had agreed.

    I am truly sorry about this. Please forgive me for any inconvenience that this situation may have caused to you and your colleagues at TecSys. I will always be grateful for the time you spent with me and the generous offer that you made. In many ways it was the opportunity of a career for me.

    Please accept my sincere regrets.

    Sincerely,

    Manuela Lopez
