X-Team

Review:

X-Team provides a remote-based recruitment service that connects employers with a team of pre-vetted professionals who specialize in development, programming, and design. With X-Team, Canadian employers can simply enter their project details and X-Team will match the requirements with the best-suited candidates.

X-Team does not advertise its pricing, making it difficult to compare them to other options. However, compared to local competitors such as Job Bank, X-Team offers less control over the hiring process and no free plan.

Highlights:

• X-Team is a 100% remote-based platform.
• All employers have access to highly trained, skilled developers who work full-time and are scalable.
• X-Team's pre-vetted team specializes in a wide range of development and programming languages.
• The platform offers an easy application process.
• X-Team's platform is compatible with companies of all sizes.
• The platform boasts an in-house radio show and a growing YouTube channel.
• There are no upfront fees required.

Shortcomings:

• The pricing is not transparent and is only provided at the contract stage.
• X-Team rarely contracts for part-time and short-term projects.
• There is a minimum contract period of three months.
• X-Team's website does not offer a French translation feature.
• The developers' skills are limited to computer sciences.
• The hiring process is largely managed by X-Team, which may concern employers who are looking for a more hands-on approach.
• X-Team's customer support is restricted to email and there is no information about response time listed on the website.

Reputation:

We were unable to find reviews of X-Team. However, despite a lack of online reviews, X-Team does boast an impressive social media presence on all major platforms, with a combined following of over 83,000 users.

X-Team vs. FreshGigs.ca:

X-Team and FreshGigs.ca differ in that while the former is a remote recruitment platform for employers interested in hiring developers, FreshGigs.ca is a Canadian platform that advertises jobs from various industries. Between the two competitors, FreshGigs.ca is the best option for targeting job seekers in Canada, thanks to its local popularity.

X-Team vs. Freelancer:

X-Team and Freelancer are both remote-based platforms that connect employers with talented experts in IT design. However, while X-Team automatically matches long-term projects with suitable developers, Freelancer provides the employer with more control over the hiring process and a bigger variety of job categories.

X-Team vs. Indeed:

Both Indeed and X-Team are global recruitment sites, but Indeed is a general job posting site, while X-Team focuses only on connecting employers to freelance IT developers. Indeed offers transparent pricing options, as well as free job posting, while X-Team only provides their pricing after a contract has been drawn up.
