Use this type of letter to accept a job offer and to confirm the terms of your employment (salary, starting date, medical examinations, etc.). Most often, an acceptance letter follows a telephone conversation during which the details of the offer and the terms of employment are discussed. The letter confirms your acceptance of the offer, expresses your appreciation for the opportunity, and positively reinforces the employer's decision to hire you. (Sample Acceptance Letter)
