Document background
The Regret Letter After Interview is a crucial document in the Irish recruitment process, used to formally communicate a negative hiring decision to job candidates who have completed the interview stage. This document must comply with Irish employment law, including the Employment Equality Acts 1998-2015, while maintaining professional courtesy and clear communication. It typically includes appreciation for the candidate's time, a clear statement of the decision, and may optionally include constructive feedback or information about future opportunities. The letter serves multiple purposes: it provides closure to candidates, maintains professional relationships, creates a record of the recruitment decision, and ensures legal compliance with Irish employment and data protection legislation. It's particularly important to draft this document carefully to avoid any discriminatory language or potential legal issues while maintaining the company's professional image.
