Document background
The Letter to Candidate Selected After Interview is a crucial document in the German recruitment process, serving as the formal written offer of employment following successful interview rounds. This document must comply with German employment law requirements, particularly the Notification Act (Nachweisgesetz) and the German Civil Code (BGB). It represents the transition point between the selection process and the formal employment relationship, containing all essential terms of employment including position, compensation, benefits, working hours, location, and start date. The letter should be drafted carefully to ensure it meets legal requirements while maintaining a positive and professional tone that welcomes the candidate to the organization. It often serves as a precursor to the more detailed employment contract and may be referenced in future employment-related matters.
