How to Sign an Offer

How company signatories and candidates sign offers in Screenloop

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Once an offer is sent, signing is completed securely via Dropbox Sign. Depending on your offer setup, the company may need to sign first before the candidate receives the offer.


Company Signatory Flow

If your Offer Template includes a company signatory, the candidate will only receive the offer after the company has signed.

Receive the Email

  • The company signatory receives an email titled ā€œThere is an offer to signā€

  • Click Sign Offer to continue

The candidate will not see the offer until this step is completed.


Review and Sign the Offer

  • The document opens in Dropbox Sign in a new tab

  • Review the full document as the candidate will see it

  • Click Get Started

  • Click Click to sign at the signature field

You can:

  • Draw your signature

  • Type your signature

  • Upload a signature image

Click Insert, then confirm.


Confirm and Send

  • Click I Agree to complete the signature

Once signed:

  • The offer is automatically sent to the candidate

  • No further action is required from the company signatory

This ensures candidates only receive fully approved, finalised offers.


Candidate Flow

Once the company has signed (if required), the candidate receives the offer by email.

Receive the Offer Email

The candidate receives:

  • Your configured email subject and message

  • A Sign Offer button


Review and Sign

  • Click Sign Offer to open the document in Dropbox Sign

  • Review the offer and any additional documents

  • Click Get Started

  • Click Click to sign and add a signature (draw, type, or upload)

  • Click Insert


Complete the Offer

  • Click I Agree to submit

Once submitted:

  • Offer status updates to Completed in Screenloop

  • All parties receive a confirmation email

  • A signed copy is stored on the candidate’s profile

All signed documents are automatically saved and tracked in one place.


How a Candidate Can Decline an Offer

Candidates can decline directly from Dropbox Sign.

Decline an Offer

  1. Click Sign Offer in the email

  2. In Dropbox Sign, click the ellipsis (ā‹®) in the top-left

  3. Select Decline to Sign

  4. Enter a reason (required) and confirm

Declining an offer is final and immediately updates Screenloop.


What Happens Next

If a candidate declines:

  • Offer status updates to Declined

  • The Offer card updates on the candidate profile

  • The decline reason is logged in the activity feed

  • The offer sender receives an email notification with the reason

You can send a new offer at any time by following the Send an Offer flow.
