The Decline Interview Letter is a crucial document in the South African recruitment process, used when an organization needs to formally communicate to a job candidate that they will not be proceeding with their application. This document must be drafted in compliance with South African employment legislation, including the Employment Equity Act, Labour Relations Act, and POPIA. The letter typically includes acknowledgment of the candidate's application, a clear but diplomatic communication of the decision, and may optionally include feedback or information about future opportunities. It serves multiple purposes: providing closure to candidates, maintaining professional relationships, creating a record of communication, and ensuring legal compliance in the recruitment process.
