I see testimonies here in comments by freelancers who are using 10xmanagement to source work. This specific product posted here seems to be for something else: you have a gig lined up, but want to be represented.

I appreciate the endorsements, but am now curious about the main product: how do I get on the 10xmanagement list of software engineers to be considered for gigs? I don't see a publicly visible way to apply. Is it really via referral only?

If so, where do I go to find a referral? Luck? Research existing "10x developers" and get them to like me?

What are the requirements to becoming a "10xer," aside from the potential for referral?

EDIT: Ah, I did not read the FAQ: https://www.10xmanagement.com/faq/ -- tl;dr as the response below suggests, probably need to contact them. As far as I can tell, they're basically operating as a standalone agency, so it's not much different than applying for a job interview anywhere else.

My other comment in this thread is not only a testimonial for the "main" 10x service, but also for this specific Agent on Demand one, which I've benefited from last year. See the 2nd paragraph [1].

There's a "Become a 10xer" button on the home page, right at the bottom. It links to this page [2].

Although I do not work for 10x, I am a very happy "client" (I'm a client since they represent me -- it still confuses me after 5 years). Feel free to email me with any questions! gs @ (my hn username).com
