How to Write a Rejection Letter
You should start your letter the same way your company does with other business letters, and you should use the company’s letterhead. On the first part of the letter, you can get directly to the point by stating that the job position has already been offered to a different candidate. If ever you called the candidate by phone beforehand, then this letter will serve as the confirmation.
The next part of the letter should be to thank the candidate for taking interest in the job position, for making an effort in submitting a cover letter to the company, and for patiently waiting for the company’s response. As with most formal letter templates, you should wish the candidate their best in their search for other opportunities. And then you should sign off by making your signature by hand over your typed name.

How to Respond to a Rejection Letter Email
Just as the letter you received from the company is formally written, you should also respond to the letter in a formal manner. While it may be a disappointment on your part, you should still thank the hiring manager for still giving you the opportunity to apply in their company and for taking the time to review your documents and credentials.
Then you may ask the hiring manager to provide you with some constructive criticism with regard to the cover letter and resume you submitted, as well as how you did in your interview. The most important thing to keep in mind when writing this response is to avoid negativity and not to take this as a source of discouragement.
