Career Blunders: The Unconfirmed Confirmation

When it comes to being recognized as a confirmed employee, it is highly recommended to request for a confirmation letter. While confirmation can be understood through certain actions, relying solely on verbal agreements or assumptions can lead to a messy situation.

Just like the Offer Letter, the Confirmation Letter also serves as official documentation that validates our status, provides clarity and most importantly, protects both parties in the employment relationship. It is particularly useful as proof of employment for various purposes like applying for visas and loans.

Now, when you ask for the confirmation letter and the boss says, “You have not yet met the expectations to be confirmed,” it’s important to ask for clarifications on your shortcomings so that you can work on them. If boss says, “You are actually automatically confirmed,” then ask for a letter politely, explaining that you need it to apply for loan applications.

Either way, don’t leave your confirmation hanging unconfirmed. Remember, the company should demonstrate commitment to you just as they expect your commitment to them. As simple as that.
