List the questions to ask about an offer
ChatGPT turns an offer email into questions you can ask, without pretending to be legal or tax advice.
A question list grouped by pay, role, and exit, with anything unclear quoted from the offer.
- 1
Paste the email
Include the compensation lines. Remove personal addresses you do not need in the prompt.
- 2
Pick five
You will not ask twelve questions on one call. Choose five you are willing to say aloud.
- 3
Ask a person
Take the five to the hiring manager or to someone who has signed this kind of offer. The model is not that person.
The prompt to paste
Read this offer email and list questions I should ask before I reply. This is not legal, tax, or immigration advice. Do not tell me whether to accept. Offer: [paste] Group the questions under: pay, role, time, and leaving. Quote the phrase in the offer that made each question necessary. If a standard term is missing from the email, you may ask whether it exists, but do not invent its contents. Keep the list under twelve questions.
Nothing in this case tells you to accept, reject, or negotiate a number.
