Why this prompt works

The “Offer letter” prompt tells the assistant exactly what to hand back: offer letter. It makes the assistant work through 3 steps in order, starting with "include start date, salary and benefits", instead of jumping straight to an answer. Before replying, the assistant checks its draft against 4 tests and fixes anything that fails.

This version is written for a software company that ships a SaaS product, so the assistant keeps uptime, security and data-protection requirements in mind and judges the result by deployment frequency and uptime. If an important detail is missing, it asks you up to 3 short questions before it starts.

How to get the best answer

  1. Fill every bracket with real detail: [CANDIDATE NAME], [ROLE], [SALARY] and the rest should hold real names, numbers and dates, not placeholders.
  2. Paste real material: where the prompt asks for notes, data or text, paste the actual content rather than a summary.
  3. Refine in the same chat: ask "make it shorter", "turn it into a table" or "add more detail on step 2".
  4. Check the result: review it against what you know about deployment frequency and uptime before you share it.
