An acceptance email is short, but it is also the written record of what you agreed to. Check each item against the offer letter before you send it.

Negotiated extras

How pay per paycheck is calculated
Gross pay per period = annual pay ÷ periods per year. Monthly = 12, semimonthly = 24, biweekly = 26 and weekly = 52. An hourly rate becomes an annual figure with rate × hours per week × 52, so $22.50 × 40 × 52 = $46,800. These are gross amounts; taxes, retirement contributions and insurance premiums are taken out before you are paid.
Etiquette tips
Reply within one or two business days, or by the deadline in the offer.
Reply to the person who made the offer and copy the recruiter if one was involved.
If you are declining other offers or interviews, let those employers know politely.
Don’t resign from your current job until you have the final offer in writing and any background checks are complete.
Frequently asked questions
How do I accept a job offer professionally?
Reply promptly, thank the employer, state clearly that you accept the position by its exact title, confirm the start date, pay and any other agreed terms, and ask about paperwork or onboarding steps. Keep it short and positive. Email is the usual format; a printed letter is fine if the employer prefers it.
Should I confirm the salary in my acceptance letter?
Yes, it is a good idea. Restating the agreed pay, start date and key benefits gives both sides a written record and gives the employer a chance to correct any misunderstanding before your first day.
How long should a job acceptance email be?
Three to five short paragraphs, usually 120 to 250 words. It only needs to say thank you, confirm acceptance and the key terms, and mention next steps.
Should I accept a job offer before negotiating?
No. Negotiate salary, start date or benefits first. Once you send an acceptance, you have agreed to the terms in the offer. If you have negotiated changes, make sure the final terms are in the written offer and confirmed in your acceptance.
How is the pay per paycheck calculated?
Annual pay is divided by the number of pay periods: 12 for monthly, 24 for semimonthly, 26 for biweekly and 52 for weekly. An hourly rate is converted with hours per week × 52 weeks (2,080 hours for a 40-hour week). These are gross amounts before taxes and deductions.
Is anything I type uploaded?
No. The letter and the pay figures are generated in your browser. Your entries are remembered only in this browser.
