In this article, we'll walk through how to send an offer letter signature packet Before you begin, make sure you have created your offer draft.
Once you've drafted your offer, follow the below steps to send your offer for signature via DocuSign.
Steps to Send Offer for Signature
Step 1: From the Submittals Tab on either the Candidate Profile or Job Profile, find the appropriate submittal, click to expand the "More" drop-down menu, and click "View Submittal."

Step 3: Add the email Subject, select the offer letter document, and click "Send Offer Letter."
Offers can be sent in two ways - with 1 or 2 signers. In both cases, the Offered To Signer is one of the signers. In the 2 signer model, the Offered By Signer is also a signer in the process.
The Offered To Signer field will be prefilled with the email address of the new prospective employee.
The Offered By Signer should be the person who will sign on behalf of the company. When the Offered By Signer is set (not No Signer Selected), this recipient will be set as the first signer in the signing sequence. The Offered To Signer will be the second signer in the signing sequence. This is a lightweight method to implement as offer approval process.
