Sample rejection letter after interview


Dear Tony,

I regret to inform you that after careful consideration, your application was not considered favorable. We have instead decided to hire someone internally. Our internal employee we felt was more qualified to do the work and requested a substantial amount of less money. Your application was great but we just went a different way. In the future, I would steer clear of demanding a high salary right off the bat until an employer can see your skills in person.

Regards,

Mark
