draft-offer
The facts
Its description
Draft an offer letter with comp details and terms. Use when a candidate is ready for an offer, assembling a total comp package (base, equity, signing bonus), writing the offer letter text itself, or prepping negotiation guidance for the hiring manager.
The description the agent reads to decide when to use it.
When it starts
The agent picks this skill when someone says a candidate is ready for an offer, or asks to assemble a total comp package (base, equity, signing bonus), write the offer letter text, or prepare negotiation guidance for the hiring manager. It is triggered by a person's request, not by another skill.
Things a person might say (the model's guesses)
- “We're ready to make an offer to our top candidate — can you draft the offer letter?”
- “Put together a total comp package for a Senior Product Designer in Austin, base plus equity and a signing bonus.”
- “Write the offer letter and give me some negotiation guidance to pass to the hiring manager.”
