Document background
The Job Offer Application Letter is a crucial document in the German employment process, serving as the formal written offer of employment from an employer to a selected candidate. It is typically issued after successful completion of the interview process and before the signing of the formal employment contract. The document must comply with German employment law, particularly the Nachweisgesetz, which requires specific employment terms to be documented in writing. This letter should include all essential employment terms such as position, salary, working hours, location, and start date, while adhering to German legal requirements and business customs. It forms the basis for the subsequent employment relationship and often serves as a reference point for the more detailed employment contract that follows.
