Dear Mr., Ms., or Dr. (Contact’s Name):

The rejection letter is difficult to write because it conveys bad news. In the first

paragraph, indicate that while you appreciate the offer, you are unable to accept the

position.

In the second paragraph, express your appreciation for the opportunity. Use your

discretion when giving reasons for turning the offer down. You may indicate that you

have accepted another opportunity. Keep in mind that it is through this type of letter you

can demonstrate your professionalism.

To conclude the letter, end on a positive note. Refer to your positive experience during

the interview process, and leave the door open in case you want to apply for another

position with the organization in the future.

Sincerely,

Your signature here
