Document background
The Rejection Letter For Job Offer is a crucial document in the German hiring process that requires careful attention to both legal compliance and professional courtesy. It is used when an organization needs to formally communicate a negative hiring decision to a job applicant. The document must adhere to German labor law requirements, particularly the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG) and data protection regulations (GDPR and BDSG). The letter should be used after a thorough evaluation process and should be sent in a timely manner following the decision. It typically includes the decision, a professional thank you, and may optionally include constructive feedback or information about future opportunities. The document serves both as a professional courtesy to candidates and as a legal record of the hiring decision.
