body: I was selected to for a job, but haven't signed nor seen the contract yet. The "you've been accepted" message was written in conditional format, "we would like to hire you" instead of "we want to..."/"we have hired".
  
  
  This job requires investing into some gear and I wonder if the employer can only hire the applicants who have purchased the said equipment. The contract is behind a form of "paywall" as well, an iOS-only chat platform.
  
  
  
title: In legalese, is there legal a difference between "we would like to hire you" and "we want to hire you"?
