Set up pay plans
- Go to Settings, Pay plans (
/app/settings/pay-plans) and select New pay plan. - Pick the role and pay type. Flat rate plans hold the flag rate, a guaranteed-hours minimum with its rate, and any tool allowance. Hourly plans hold the rate and overtime rules. Salary plans can add a percent or fixed bonus. Commission plans hold a base plus tiered percentages, for example on gross profit.
- Give it a name your team will recognize, like “B-tech flat rate, 40-hour guarantee”, and save.
The plan is written out in plain English on the offer letter so the candidate knows exactly how they're paid.
Edit your offer letter
Go to Settings, Offer letters (/app/settings/offer-letters). Start from the default template and edit the wording. Merge fields like {{candidateName}}, {{jobTitle}} and {{companyName}} are filled in when you send.
Send an offer
- Open the candidate and select Draft offer.
- Pick the pay plan and confirm the rate, start date, pay frequency and reporting manager. Plans for the job's role are listed first.
- Add contingencies, like a clear background check and drug screen.
- Select Save draft and preview to read the letter, then Send for signature. It goes out for e-signature and the candidate moves to Offer extended.
