Follow Up Email After Accepting Job Offer Templates: How To Write & Examples

Need to write a follow up email after accepting job offer? Here are 3 simple steps to get started:

1. Gather the information you need to know.

Before you write anything, you need to know who or what you're writing about. The more specific you are, the more personalized you can make your content.

Here's our suggestions for writing a follow up email after accepting job offer:

Reader's name: [name of hiring manager]
Job title: [title of new job]
Start date: [date you will start working]
Questions about starting the job: [e.g. what should I bring on my first day, who should I report to, etc.]

2. Determine the structure of your output.

The structure of your content is just as important as the content itself. The structure of your content is how you're going to arrange the information in the content to make it easier for the readers to read and understand.

Thank the reader for the opportunity to work with them
Reiterate your excitement about the job
Confirm details of your start date and other logistics
Ask any questions you have about starting the job
Offer to provide any additional information that might be helpful in preparing for your first day

3. Write the content or use Copy.ai to help you get started. Once you have your structure down, you can start writing the content.

Example:
