Offer Letter

Definition

An offer letter is a formal document from an employer confirming a job offer, including the role, salary, start date, and key terms of employment. It marks the transition from candidate to prospective employee and usually requires your written acceptance. Read it carefully, check that the details match what was discussed, and feel free to ask questions or negotiate before signing rather than after.

Usage Example

Before signing the offer letter, she confirmed the salary, start date, and holiday allowance matched the verbal agreement.
