For candidates

What can employers actually see about me?

The short answer: your verified scores and the skills you declared, under an anonymous handle — and nothing that identifies you, until you agree to a reveal.

Before a reveal

They see

  • Your verified assessment scores, and the evidence behind them.
  • The skills you declared.
  • Your anonymous handle.
  • The working region a role genuinely requires.

They do not see

  • Your name, email, phone number or photo.
  • Your current or previous employers.
  • Your education.
  • Your age, gender or nationality.
  • Where you live, beyond the region above.

This is not a privacy setting an employer can ask us to relax, and there is no "request full profile" route through the product. An employer who has not completed a reveal has no path to your identity.

What a reveal needs

Three things have to be true at the same time:

  1. You are far enough along. Reveals are only possible at stages the platform allows — in practice, once you have been shortlisted and the process is genuinely progressing. An employer cannot reveal a candidate they have merely looked at.
  2. You agreed to this one. Consent is per employer and per reveal. Saying yes to one company tells the next company nothing, and does not put you on any list.
  3. It gets written down. Which employer, which role, when, and the consent it rested on, recorded permanently in a log nobody can edit afterwards — including us.

After a reveal

The employer learns who you are, and only then do questions about right to work, visa status or Emirati nationality come up — at the point they matter to an actual offer, rather than at a point where they could colour an evaluation that is supposed to be about your skills.

Withdrawing consent

You can withdraw consent for future reveals at any time. That stops new ones. It cannot un-tell an employer something they have already been told, and we would rather say so plainly than imply otherwise.

Your public profile

Separately, you can choose to publish a public profile. It is off by default, carries no personal identifying information, and lives at an opaque URL that is not built from your name or email. Before publishing, you can run a re-identification check — a "what would this actually give away about me?" assessment — and decide afterwards.
