works at the end of the day, bad news has just are received as good news. However, in which the path, it is conveyed to create a different response for the receiver. There is a mnemonic: KKK, which stands for: K - Kiss; K - Kick; K -. Again Kiss

This type of letter is of course to be disappointing for the receiver. But let them that they were worthwhile candidates that there were so many other equally well qualified candidates and find someone who was better suited to know is a less damaging approach.
The last sentence helps goodwill for the Company to create.
Clearly, there is bad news letters dozens of different scenarios and I can work with any scenario deal here. If you remember the formula and sit in the chair receiver ie, thinking, what would it be so that you get the letter you write, you will do a better job.
The trick to say "no" or deliver the bad news with compassion for the dignity and feelings of the recipient. If you follow the formula, you will notice it works well.
