A job offer letter represents the intentions of an employer seeking an individual for their services. In addition to payment, the offer will usually outline benefits, such as health insurance or retirement plans, as well as vacation time and personal leave. The employer will commonly have an expiration period where the employee will have to make the decision to accept, reject, or make a counter-offer.
