What this is
A bench we pick from when a client asks
Companies in the Gulf, Europe and the US ask us for an engineer or a team from Jordan. We shortlist from this bench, then employ whoever is accepted on a Jordanian contract with Folowise, working inside the client's team.
- 01
Who employs you
Folowise, on a formal Jordanian contract with social security. The client runs your day to day; we are the employer.
- 02
Who pays you
We do, monthly and in JOD, whatever the client's invoice timing. Annual and sick leave are in the contract.
- 03
After a year
The client may hire you directly after twelve months, with no fee on either side. It is written into their contract and yours.
Registration
Register your profile once
Two minutes. Drop your CV and we fill the form for you, paste anything about yourself, or let your AI assistant do it. All we actually need: your name, email, role, level, CV and consent. Send again with the same email and we update your profile rather than creating a second one.
How do you want to register?
Drop your CV
A PDF. We read it and fill the form in seconds; you review before sending.
PDF only, 5 MB at most.
Paste anything
Your LinkedIn about section, an old CV as text, a GitHub readme. We pull out what we can.
Let your AI do it
Claude Code, ChatGPT or Cursor. Copy this prompt, attach your CV, and it asks for what is missing then sends once you say yes.
I want to register on the Folowise engineering bench: a talent pool in Amman, Jordan. Folowise employs engineers on a Jordanian contract and places them with client teams abroad.
1. Fetch the form contract: GET /api/public/engineering-teams/candidates/contract
2. Read my CV (attached) and fill every field you can from it. Ask me only for what is missing or unclear, and confirm the two required picks with me: role and level.
3. Show me the filled values and the consentText from the contract. Do not send until I say yes.
4. POST multipart/form-data to the endpoint in the contract: the CV as "attachment", source=agent, consent=true.
5. Tell me the profile id from the response and remind me to open the confirmation email.Whichever way: you get a confirmation email, and nothing is live until you open it.
Our AI assistant reads the file once to fill the fields. Nothing is stored until you send with your consent.
After you send
Ten stages, and you always know which one you are in
The same stages we show the client on the "How we work" page. We do not hide from you what we tell them.
Talent team
Sourcing
Our engineers' networks, employee referrals, and the Folowise Academy community. We do not buy CV lists.
Talent team
Experience screen
We check what they actually built, not what the job title says. Filtered here: title inflation, and one year of experience repeated five times.
A Folowise engineer
A practical technical task
A short task that resembles real work in the target domain. No competitive-programming puzzles. Filtered here: people who interview well and do not produce code.
A Folowise engineer
Live technical interview
Run by a working engineer, not a recruiter. We walk through their decisions on the task and why they made them. Filtered here: copied solutions and shallow understanding.
Engineering lead
Code and architecture review
Senior level and above only. We review prior code and ask for a small system design. Filtered here: people who write working code but cannot justify its structure.
Talent team
English and communication
A recorded English conversation about technical work, graded on a scale we publish to you with the profile. Filtered here: people who cannot explain a technical problem clearly to a client.
Talent team
Delivery maturity and references
How they behave when a date slips, who they tell, and when. We call two references when the candidate allows it.
Engineering lead
Engineering lead sign-off
One person at Folowise puts their name on this candidate. If they will not sign, you never see the profile.
You
Your interview
You interview every candidate before any commitment, and you can say no without explaining. Nobody joins your team without your yes.
Operations
Placement and onboarding
A Jordanian contract, an NDA, IP assignment, equipment, and managed access. A joint review on day 30.
FAQ
What an engineer asks before sending
01Who is the employer, you or the client?
Folowise. Your contract is Jordanian and with us, social security is on us, and pay comes from us monthly. The client runs your day to day and interviews you before placement, but does not sign your contract.
02I am employed now. Will my employer know I registered?
No. Only our talent team sees your profile, and we contact no current or past employer without your permission. Pick "within a month" for availability if you have a notice period.
03What are the hours, and do I work Fridays?
Sunday to Thursday is the default, eight hours overlapping the client's clock. European and US clients may ask for a late start or a Friday in exchange for another day; it goes into your contract before you accept, not after.
04How do you decide my level?
By the technical task and the interview, not by years alone. The ladder is published on the "How we work" page, with what each level means and what we do not expect of it. We may place you above or below what you picked, and we say why.
05Do I need to relocate?
The default is remote from Jordan. Some Gulf clients ask for on-site presence; that is a box you tick on the form, never something we impose later.
06Can the client hire me directly?
Yes, after twelve months on the placement, with no fee on you or on them. Before that the contract stays with us, because we carry the vetting and replacement cost.
