Letter: To Decline a Recent Offer

If you have recently been offered a job and accepted it, only to be given a more appealing offer you wish to accept in its place; this letter will help you inform the first company that you will not be joining them.  Do not use this letter if it is even remotely possible you might change your mind.

Dear Potential Employer’s Name,

This is a very difficult letter to write. Your offer of Title on Date was very attractive. Based on the information I had at that time I felt it appropriate to accept your generous offer.

Unfortunately, other options have occurred. Life is a path of continual motion, growth and learning. As more has been revealed in the last few days, I must choose a different path than working for Company Name. I apologize but I must decline your offer. There is no fault, just a difficult decision I had to make for my future best interest.

I wish you and Company Name the best of success and luck.

Sincerely,

Call or write us with your questions:
