This

is

the

Remote

Work

Live

Business

Spotlight
,

where

I

highlight

top

remote

business

innovators

and

share

personal

and

career

development

tips

to

help

you

navigate

the

world

of

remote

work
.

I'm

your

host
,

alex

Wilson-Campbell
.

I

help

remote

work

managers
,

professionals

and

freelancers

overcome

isolation

and

uncertainty

in

their

life

to

get

hired

and

fulfill

their

career

goals
.

So

in

today's

overview

of

one

of

the

best

remote

businesses

around
,

we

have

X-Team
,

and

X-Team

is

essentially

a

community

of

developers
,

so

they

provide

developers

for

a

variety

of

clients

and

they

say

they're

trusted

by

the

world's

leading

brands

since

2006
,

are

well

established

in

terms

of

their

expertise

and

some

of

their

clients

here

you

can

see

Fox
,

dell
,

discovery
,

caplan
,

beach

body
,

so

a

number

of

um

clients

that

they've

had

here

are

sort

of

household

names
.

So

that's

really

good

and

what

they're

saying

is

you

get

a

really

good

feel

for

what

they

do

and

the

sort

of

um

people

that

they

are
.

So

get

energized
.

We'll

constantly

motivate

and

fund

you

to

learn
,

grow
,

stay

energized
.

Sounds

great
.

Work

from

anywhere
.

That's

what

we're

all

about
.

100%

remote

business

as

well
.

So

everybody

is

working

remotely

in

this

business
.

Experience

a

futuristic

culture

that

is

intriguing
,

something

that

is

intriguing
,

and

although

what

I'd

say

is
,

even

though

this

is

a

business

that

hires

uh

developers
,

or

a

lot

of

developers
,

and

provides

developers

to

the
,

to

the

companies

I

mentioned

before
,

uh
,

don't

let

that

put

you

off

in

terms

of

doing

research
,

because

there

may

be

opportunities

and

openings

within

the

company

that

are

not

related

to

um

develop

being

a

developer
,

cause

obviously

they're

going

to

need

things

like

sales
.

They're

probably

going

to

need

marketing

as

well
.

So

it's

a

good

website

potentially

to

keep

your

eye

on
,

because

you

want

to

just

stay

up

to

date

with

how

they're

growing
,

how

they're

developing

and

it

sounds

like

they

are

Meet

a

few

X-teamers
,

it

says

here
,

and

it

prompts

you

to

learn

more
,

explore
,

work

and

live
.

So

there's

lots

of

videos

on

here
,

lots

of

media

on

here

to

get

you

sort

of

immersed

in

what

they

do

and

understand

what

they

do

as

well
.

Speaker 1
2:15

Have

a

look

at

their

blog
.

I

think

their

blog

is

quite

interesting

because

they

talk

about

the

team

and

what

they

do
,

quite

a

lot

obviously

working

remotely

Look

at

this

guy

here

perched

on

the

edge

of

a

cliff
,

or

edge

of

a

hill
,

at

least
,

anyway

and

they

talk

about

some

interesting

things
.

There's

one

particular

thing

here
.

Let's

talk

about

passion
.

There's

another

article

that

I

just

saw

down

here

how

to

fight

loneliness

with

remote

work
.

So

they're

really

sort

of

clued

up

in

terms

of

some

of

the

things

that

you

might

be

concerned

about

as

a

remote

worker
,

whether

that

be

as

an

established

remote

worker

or

one

or

a

person

who

wants

to

get

into

that
.

So

they

do

a

lot
.

They

put

out

a

lot

of

content

to

understand

or

to

at

least

reach

out

to

people

like

you

so

that

you

can

understand

that

they

know

what

they're

all

about

and

what

they're

talking

about

when

it
,

so

that

you

can

understand

that

they

know

what

they're

all

about

and

what

they're

talking

about

when

it

comes

to

remote

work

and

that

they

understand

the

whole

idea

of

remote

work
.

So
,

yeah
,

have

a

look
,

and

I

think

their

linkedin

profile

is

also

a

good

place

to

look

at
.

Um
,

they

describe

themselves

as

internet
,

but

obviously

there's

restrictions

on

linkedin
.

But

it's

all

about

developers
.

Speaker 1
3:22

An

international

international

company

founded

in

Melbourne
,

australia
,

100%

remote
,

and

they

talk

about
,

as

I

said
,

some

of

the

clients

they

spoke

about

before
,

headquartered

in

Chelsea
,

victoria
,

so
,

and

established

in

2004
.

And

their

speciality

is

just

here

as

well

for

you

to

look

at

Agile

methodologies
,

responsive

design
,

project

management
,

dal
,

javascript
,

angular

any

of

those

languages

suit

you

if

you're

a

developer
.

But
,

as

I

said
,

even

if

you're

not

a

developer
,

um
,

you

should

still

be

doing

some

research

because

it

may

be

that

you

can

help

them

in

other

capacities

in

terms

of

their

content

strategy
,

because

obviously

they're

putting

out

content

to

attract

people
,

to

attract

customers

and

the

sorts

of

people

that

they

tend

to

hire
.

As

I

said
,

lots

of

developers
.

Designer

he

is

a

ceo

ryan

um

charter

and

product

management

engineer
.

What

else

do

we

have
?

Lots

and

lots

of

developers
.

Chief

growth

officer

obviously

he's

sales

marketing
,

probably

more

marketing
.

What

else

do

we

have
?

Full

stack

developers

and

you

can
,

like

I

said
,

see

some

of

the

program
.

If

you

are

a

developer
,

you

can

look

at

some

of

the

programming

languages

that

they

use
.

Product

management

as

well
.

You

probably

think

as

well
.

Head

of

partnerships

here
.

Marketing

manager

so

content

marketing
,

as

I

said

just

here
.

So

lots

of

different

types

of

people

that

they

hire

and

certainly

a

company
,

a

reputable

company

within

the

remote

space
,

that's

worth

you

having

a

look
.

So

that's

X-Team

X-Teamcom

having

a

look
.

So

that's

x-team
,

x-teamcom
,

have

a

look
.
