Draft request for Written Reasons for Not Being Hired with an escalation ladder and an evidence checklist.
The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
Write a polite request for feedback after a job application was declined. What I will tell you: employer [EMPLOYER_NAME], role [ROLE], interview date [INTERVIEW_DATE], what I would like to know [WHAT_I_WANT_TO_KNOW]. The letter needs to thank them for the interview, name the role and interview date, and ask two or three specific questions such as which skills to strengthen. It should be gracious, make no complaint, and say I would value being considered for future openings. Facts and papers worth gathering: the job title and date, the interview date, and two or three specific questions such as skills to develop. Reasonable asks: brief feedback in writing or a short call. A typical reply: "We cannot provide feedback." Answer by thanking them and asking to be considered for future roles. For the request for written reasons for not being hired, ask me questions one at a time, waiting for each answer, and only then write the letter. Supply the letter and a 60-word cover note, then the ordered next steps if there is no reply (reply, then stop), then an evidence checklist (application copy), and one delivery tip. Email it with a clear subject line and the PDF attached, and archive a screenshot of the sent folder showing date and time and do not delete any reply. Consider this editing help, not legal advice, so give me no odds of success. Compose the letter from me personally as a layperson, never as an attorney, and claim no professional standing. Start by asking what is still missing and flag any claim I cannot document. Quote no law, case or time limit that I did not supply; rely on [JURISDICTION] and [RELEVANT_LAW_OR_POLICY_IF_KNOWN], and remind me to check the exact law with a qualified professional or a local consumer agency. Let it be plain, firm and fair, with no threats beyond lawful steps I name, and give the cut-off I enter in [DEADLINE].
