Offer Decision Framework

Use this skill when comparing uncertain internships or job offers.

Compare

Record the exact role, offer evidence, pay, attendance, agreement, continuation mechanism, location, commute, actual work, portfolio output, deadline, and reversibility.

Rank

Weight the user's stated objective. A useful default order is:

  1. role relevance
  2. verifiable work and output
  3. employer signal and future access
  4. continuation certainty
  5. learning and mentorship
  6. total financial and time cost
  7. city and living constraints
  8. offer certainty

Guardrails

  • A verbal offer is not a contract.
  • Company size and brand are signals, not proof of useful work.
  • Do not reject a secure option for a speculative one without understanding timing and downside.
  • Do not misrepresent a role on a resume; express real transferable tasks accurately.

Return a ranking, reasons, change conditions, signing questions, and a deadline-based fallback.
