An offer template contains the details of a job offer for a candidate. An offer template links to a covering email and can have the following parts to build a full page layout with content:

  • header

  • one or more sections

  • footer

Each of the parts can be edited with a rich text editor, and you can use merge fields for information specific to the vacancy, application, and candidate.
