AI agent for recruiters

Offer Approval Package Agent

A complete offer package, within policy or with a documented exception, approved by everyone required

Offer Approval Package Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

Offers are delayed because the pay band, equity or approver details are wrong or missing. This agent reads the candidate's expectations, the pay band for the level and the pay of current internal peers. It drafts offer terms and checks them against policy limits for base, bonus and equity. If a term falls outside the band, it flags it and builds an exception request that explains the reason and cost. It then lists who must approve and routes the package in order. Finance, the hiring manager and HR approve before the offer is released. Edge case: the candidate asks for 8% above the band maximum, so the agent shows the cost of an exception and a within-band option.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

Terms inside the band go straight to approval. Terms outside the band trigger an exception request with cost and a within-band alternative.

  • Put any term outside the band into an exception request
  • Compare to peers with the same level and role
  • Require finance approval for any exception
  • Show a within-band option beside each exception

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Policy limits for base, bonus and equity
  • Peer comparison rules (default: same level and role)
  • Approver order
  • Exception request format

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Finance, hiring manager and HR approve the package before release

Hard limits

  • Never releases an offer
  • Never changes the pay band

It stops when

  • Done: all approvals are in and the package is ready
  • Stop: no pay band exists for the role

An example run

What happensA candidate for a senior analyst role wanted $128,000 against a band of $105,000 to $120,000. The first check failed. The agent built an exception request showing a $8,000 cost over the band, plus an in-band option at $120,000 with a $6,000 signing bonus. Peers earned $112,000 to $119,000. Finance rejected the exception and approved the option.
