Finances & Contracts
Will you hire me full-time or as a freelancer?
You'll be hired as a full-time contractor (160 hours/month), contracting remotely with our company in Australia.
Will I be working full-time or part-time hours?
At X-Team, we only hire people who can fully dedicate themselves to a project. That means a standard 40 hours per week, Monday through Friday.
How will I get paid?
Every X-Teamer receives an hourly wage at a rate that's decided at the end of the application process. This rate is determined by your experience, communication ability, leadership ability, and overall skills.
Do I need to take care of my own taxes?
Yes. Because we hire you as a full-time contractor, you'll need to take care of your own taxes. If this is your first time doing so, we recommend you get the advice of a qualified tax advisor to understand the requirements of your country.
How long will my contract last?
Most contracts last about ten or more months depending on the requirements of our partners. Some contracts can be as short as three months, while others have lasted ten years.
What happens when that contract ends?
We won't let you down. Our average project length is ten months, but do good work and we'll keep you on board until we can find a new project for you. X-Teamers either rotate between internal and external projects or shift between projects with our long-standing partners. Read what X-Teamers have to say about that here.
