The concept is not meaningful. Only one job can be in the foreground

$ help wait
wait: wait [n]
Wait for the specified process and report its termination status. If
N is not given, all currently active child processes are waited for,
and the return code is zero. N is a process ID; if it is not given,
all child processes of the shell are waited for.
