Candidates confirm accept or decline with terms reviewed, start date and a typed name plus date, giving HR one clear acceptance record to start pre-boarding.
Quick answer
Offers drift without a formal reply — the candidate confirms terms item by item and accepts or declines with a typed name and date; it is an intent record, not a legal signature.
Offers get accepted in calls and texts, and HR later finds two different start dates in the story. This form has the candidate confirm the key terms one by one, tick accept or decline, type their name and add the date — a neutral acknowledgement record so pre-boarding starts with everyone on the same page.
