Offer Letter & Acceptance Tracking

Q: Can we customize the offer letter template for different roles or centres?

Yes. The automation uses role and centre data to populate the correct terms, salary, and location details into a customizable template for each offer.

Q: What if a candidate does not respond after the first follow-up?

The automation sends a second follow-up after five days if no response is received. Operations staff can also manually reach out or adjust the follow-up schedule as needed.

Q: Will this work with our existing email and spreadsheet setup?

Yes. The automation integrates with Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Sheets, and can also connect to HubSpot or other tracking systems your centre already uses.

Q: How do we know if a candidate has read the offer letter?

The automation tracks email opens and clicks, showing operations staff in real time whether the candidate has engaged with the offer before sending a follow-up.

Issuing place offers with a response deadline and tracking acceptance before the place is held too long.

About This Automation

Offer letter creation and acceptance tracking is a manual, error-prone process that consumes significant operations staff time each month. Candidates often receive letters with salary or role errors, and follow-ups are inconsistent, leading to delayed hiring decisions.

Automation generates accurate offer letters from candidate data, sends them with read tracking, and monitors responses automatically. Follow-ups to non-respondents are triggered after three days, and all acceptances and rejections are logged in a central system in real time.

Key features:

Generate offer letters automatically from candidate and role data with zero manual drafting

Send offers with read receipts and track candidate engagement in real time

Log all acceptances and rejections centrally without manual spreadsheet updates

Trigger follow-up emails automatically to candidates who do not respond within three days

Notify hiring managers and payroll instantly when an offer is accepted

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Candidate Approved for Offertrigger

Hiring manager submits candidate details and role information via a form or message. The automation detects the approval and begins the offer workflow.

2. Generate Offer Letter

The automation retrieves the candidate details, role, salary, and centre terms from the form and populates a templated offer letter. The letter is stored.

3. Send Offer

The automation sends the offer letter to the candidate with tracking enabled. A read receipt and link-click tracking are logged.

4. Log Offer

The automation creates a contact record for the candidate and logs the offer details, send date, and expected response deadline.

5. Schedule Follow-Up Reminder

The automation sets a reminder for 3 days after the offer is sent. If no response is received, a follow-up email is triggered automatically.

6. Send Follow-Up Email

If the candidate has not responded after 3 days, the automation sends a polite follow-up email asking for confirmation.

7. Notify Team on Acceptance

When the candidate replies with acceptance, the automation sends a notification to the hiring manager and payroll team with the candidate details and start date.
