New job messages without the clichés
A new job message has one job: show that you knew they were working for it. Anyone can say congratulations. Only someone who was paying attention can say what it took.
Put one on a bouquetTap any line to copy it, then change one detail so it sounds like you.
For a friend
For a colleague
For a promotion
When they are nervous
How to make it yours
- Mention the grind, not just the offer. Everyone else congratulates the outcome.
- Do not ask about salary or the package. It is not your information to have.
- If it is a move they were reluctant to take, acknowledge what they are leaving behind.
- Send it the night before the first day, when nerves are real.

How do I congratulate someone who got a job I wanted?
Say the true thing and keep it short. Do not add “you are so lucky” — nobody in that position wants to hear it.
Should I send flowers for a new job?
A small bouquet with a specific note is a nice touch. Do not send anything to their new office in week one.
What about a promotion in the same team?
Congratulate privately and specifically. Public over-celebration can make the workplace awkward.
