# 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.

### Accept the offer

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

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.scholars.net/how-to/accept-or-reject-a-job-offer.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
