Meaning of Appointment Letter
The letter written by the employer requesting the selected candidates to join in a specific position is known as appointment letter. Appointment letter is also called ‘job offer letter’ or ‘job letter’.
When people apply for jobs, they will undergo a selection process. At the end of the selection process, some candidates are finally selected for the job. Once the selection process is over, the employer sends appointment letter to those candidates who have successfully completed the selection process. Through this letter, the employer informs the candidate that he or she has been finally selected and invites him or her to join in the specified post. This letter also states the conditions of the job, its duties, and responsibilities.
An Appointment Letter is a legally binding document that confirms that an organization has offered a position to an employee and they have accepted the terms and agreement in exchange for a salary. The appointment letter goes into great detail of what is expected of the new employee and the role they will play in the company.
