Document background
The With Regret Letter is a crucial document in the Swiss recruitment process, used when informing candidates about unsuccessful job applications. It must comply with Swiss federal and cantonal employment laws, particularly regarding data protection (FADP) and anti-discrimination regulations. This document is typically issued following a completed recruitment process and can range from responding to initial applications to post-interview communications. The letter serves multiple purposes: officially documenting the decision, maintaining professional relationships, ensuring legal compliance, and protecting both parties' interests. It may also include optional elements such as feedback or future opportunity notifications, depending on the specific context and company policies.
