Director of Human Resources
Bright Company
565 Water Street
Iowa City, IA 52246
Dear Mr. Anderson:
I would like to express my appreciation for your letter offering the position
of Sales Manager at a starting salary of $62,000 annually. The position requires
exactly the kind of work I want to do, and I know that I will do a good job.
As we discussed, my starting date will be October 1. I further understand
that the health insurance is to be paid fully by the organization and a
retirement plan is available. I also have an option to purchase 10,000 shares of
company common stock at an exercise price of $9.00/share.
Yesterday I submitted my resignation at
Memory Inc. and worked out a mutually acceptable notice of
three weeks. This will allow me enough time to finalize my current business
project here and be ready to join Bright Company on schedule. I'll take the
pre-employment physical this Saturday, and I don not expect any problems to
rise.
I'm eagerly anticipating starting my new position and look
forward to working with you soon. Thank you again for this opportunity.
Sincerely,
Job Seeker
