Dear Hiring Manager:
Thank you for your letter dated Oct. 4, 2001. After careful consideration, I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me a position in your department.

This year, I have been particularly fortunate in receiving an unusually large number of rejection letters. With such a varied and promising field of candidates, it's impossible for me to accept all refusals.

Despite your company's outstanding qualifications and previous experience in rejecting applicants, I find that your rejection does not meet my needs at this time.

I look forward to seeing you Monday, at 9 a.m., as I begin my future with your company. I wish you the best of luck in rejecting future applicants.

Sincerely,

Joe B. Brown
Interviewee
