Document background
The Pre Offer Letter is a strategic document used in the Philippine employment context as an intermediate step between successful interviews and formal job offers. It serves to gauge candidate interest and initiate preliminary discussions about employment terms while maintaining flexibility for both parties. This document type is particularly useful for senior positions, specialized roles, or situations requiring complex negotiations. While not legally binding under Philippine law, the Pre Offer Letter should be carefully drafted to avoid creating unintended obligations while complying with local labor regulations and anti-discrimination laws. It typically precedes the formal offer letter and employment contract, providing a framework for final negotiations while protecting both employer and candidate interests during the recruitment process.
