# Accept or reject a job offer

If you've received an offer, congratulations – you've been selected to work on a job on Scholars.

The offer will contain all of the details regarding the job: the job description, start and end dates, and the hourly rate at which you'll be paid.

If the job pays different rates for different timesheet categories, the offer also shows how each category's multiplier changes the base rate. For example, you may see the base rate next to the final training or assessment rate before you accept.

The offer can also show a payment schedule. This schedule explains the work period, when your timesheet should be submitted, when it should be approved, and when payment is expected to be sent.

The next step is to look at the offer and accept or reject it.

If you have not responded to an offer yet, Scholars may send reminder emails with a link back to the offer.

The offer will disappear from the home page. There is nothing else you should do at this time, and you do not need to continue reading this guide.
{% endstep %}

### Complete the compliance requirements

If you wish to instead accept the offer, you must first complete the compliance requirements.

Essentially, you click on each of the compliance requirements on the right and follow the steps on screen to complete them.

The message above the offer buttons tells you what happens next:

* If you still need to complete a requirement, finish the listed steps. *Accept Offer* stays disabled.
* If you have completed everything available to you but an item needs company review, wait for the review. Scholars will email you when the offer is ready.
* When every requirement is complete, you can accept the offer.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Accept the offer

Once all of the compliance requirements are completed, you may click on *Accept Offer* to accept the offer.
