What’s New in the Redwood Job Offer Creation Flow?

The redesigned Redwood job offer flow, built using Visual Builder Studio (VBS), introduces several user-centric enhancements:

  • Modernized Flow Navigation: Initiate the process directly from the Redwood job applications list page or job application details page. The interface now starts with the Info to include section, where you can select optional sections relevant to your offer, ensuring focus on necessary details first and the flexibility to add more later.
  • Mandatory Sections: The Basic info (including fields like Business Unit, Position, and Proposed Start Date) and Assignment info sections must be completed to create and locate the job offer within the system.
  • Smart Section Handling: The Submit and Save and Close buttons remain inaccessible until all required details are filled, ensuring complete and accurate entries before progressing.

Key Section Enhancements

  • Basic Info: The Proposed Start Date is no longer prepopulated, allowing custom business-rule defaults. Notably, Business Unit and Position have moved to this section for consistency across HCM flows. Selecting a Position may trigger a Position override section, with smart attribute synchronization and override options.

  • Payroll Info: All payroll fields are visible by default; custom rules can hide/show fields as needed. Saving payroll frequency information is now mandatory before proceeding.

  • Preview Flow: Preview and edit the offer in a single streamlined path, enhancing efficiency and reducing errors compared to prior multi-step experiences.

 

AI Agent Support: A Standout Feature

A powerful addition is the native AI Agent integration. This agent can:

  • Answer field-level and policy-related questions on-demand.
  • Guide users in real time through compensation, salary, and offer procedures.
  • Minimize errors and interruptions, increasing process efficiency.

Organizations can further train the AI Agent by uploading answers to frequently asked recruiting and compensation queries, such as “Can I change the hiring manager in the offer team while creating the job offer?” or “What’s the maximum salary for a specific role in a given location?”

 

Steps to Enable the Redwood Job Offer Flow

To leverage these enhancements, make sure the following profile options are enabled:

  • ORA_IRC_RECRUITING_REDWOOD_ENABLED
  • ORA_IRC_JOB_APPLICATION_REDWOOD_ENABLED
  • ORA_IRC_CREATE_OFFER_REDWOOD_ENABLED

 

Business Benefits of the Redwood Job Offer Creation Flow

1. Faster and More Efficient Offer Creation: The redesigned Redwood interface simplifies navigation, reduces clicks, and enables recruiters to complete job offers quickly. Starting from the “Info to Include” section ensures only relevant components are shown, reducing time spent on unnecessary fields.

2. Improved Accuracy and Compliance: Mandatory sections, smart field behaviors, and controlled form progression ensure recruiters can’t proceed without completing essential information. This results in fewer data errors, better adherence to policies, and stronger compliance across hiring workflows.

3. Enhanced Recruiter Productivity: Automation of Position-based defaults, synchronized attributes, and pre-inherited data (like the Offer Team) reduces manual data entry. Recruiters spend less time filling forms and more time engaging with top candidates.

4. Consistent and Standardized Hiring Practices: Key fields and structures—such as Business Unit, Position, and Payroll details—now align with other HCM flows. This ensures consistency across HR processes and minimizes confusion among hiring teams.

5. Reduced Training and Onboarding Effort: With a simplified, intuitive UI, new recruiters can learn the offer creation process quickly. The guided structure and predictable flow minimize the learning curve, making teams productive sooner.

6. Smarter Decision-Making with AI Agent Support: Real-time AI responses help recruiters understand policies, compensation limits, and field requirements instantly. This reduces dependency on HR support teams, accelerates decisions, and improves confidence in offer data.

7. Better Candidate Experience: Accurate and timely job offers, supported by smarter workflows, lead to quicker turnarounds. The ability to tailor offer letters and compensation details ensures a more personalized and professional candidate journey.

8. Greater Flexibility for Business-Specific Requirements: Rule-based field visibility, smart overrides, and customizable sections allow organizations to adapt Redwood flows to their unique policies. This ensures the system supports varied hiring models without compromising standardization.
