What Is an Offer Letter?
An offer letter is a formal document from an employer to a candidate confirming a job offer. It outlines the key terms of employment — position, compensation, start date, and employment type — and serves as a written record of what was agreed upon during the hiring process.
What to Include in an Offer Letter
- Job title and department
- Start date
- Compensation (salary or hourly rate)
- Employment type (full-time, part-time, contract)
- Reporting structure
- Any contingencies (background check, references)
- Response deadline
Offer Letter vs. Employment Contract
An offer letter is typically a brief, informal document that outlines the basics of a job offer. An employment contract is a more detailed, legally binding agreement. Most small businesses use offer letters for standard hires and reserve formal contracts for executive or specialized roles.
