We vet your profile once — stack, communication, availability — then match you directly to companies hiring right now. No job boards. No cold applications.
Most engineers apply to 50 jobs and hear back from three. We flip that model. One vetting session, and we actively match you to employers who are searching for your exact profile.
WhatsApp or email us your CV and a brief note on the kind of role you're looking for. No application form. No recruiter portal.
A 20–30 minute call to understand your stack, projects, salary expectations, and availability. We don't do trick questions — we want to understand your work.
A brief async technical task relevant to your role. Not a LeetCode marathon — a real-world problem that takes 45–60 minutes.
We build your one-page profile: stack, projects, scores, salary range, notice period, and a 'why match' note. You review and approve before it's sent anywhere.
When an employer search matches your profile, we introduce you directly. No blind applications. You know the company and role before we make the connection.
No. ReadyShortlist is completely free for engineers. Our fee is paid by the employer only when a hire is made.
Mid-level only — 2 to 6 years of hands-on engineering experience. This is our focus and where we add the most value.
Backend engineering (Node.js, Python, Go, Java), full-stack (React/Next.js + API layer), and data/AI engineering (ML pipelines, LLM integrations). We don't do other roles yet.
The screening call and technical task typically take 3–5 days total. After approval, your profile is live and searchable immediately.
No. We operate confidentially. Your profile is shared only when we have a specific employer match — and only with your prior approval.
That's fine. We keep your profile warm. When you're ready to activate, we do a quick refresh and push you to matching employer searches immediately.
Send us your CV via WhatsApp or email. We'll review it within a business day and let you know if we can move forward.
Free for candidates. Always.
