What it does

Drives the offer-approval chain entirely inside Slack. Each approver gets a direct message with Approve and Request-Changes buttons; the next approver is only pinged after the current one approves. When the full chain signs off, a consolidated approval summary is posted to the hiring channel.

When to use it

Use when your approvers live in Slack and want to act without leaving it. Best for fast-moving teams that prefer button-click sign-offs over email or a project tool, while still enforcing a strict approval order.

How it works

  1. 1A new offer record in Airtable triggers the workflow.
  2. 2The flow DMs the first approver in Slack with the comp details and action buttons, then waits for the click.
  3. 3A logic gate reads the button response: Approve advances the chain, Request-Changes routes the offer back to the recruiter and halts.
  4. 4The DM-and-wait step repeats down the configured approver list until everyone has approved.
  5. 5The Airtable record is updated with each timestamped decision.
  6. 6A final assembled summary — approvers, decisions, comp — is posted to the hiring Slack channel.
