FAQ

xeem is an online platform that brings companies and young adults together through online challenges and promotes innovation. You develop solutions to real problems and submit your results as a PDF file. Participation is possible alone or in a team (up to 4 people). Xeem does not actively place teams.

Participation is 100% free for you! Depending on the challenge, you can win non-cash or cash prizes. Winners also receive an official certificate.

You must be at least 18 years old to take part in the challenge.
 Otherwise: Challenges are open to all young adults who no longer want to hide their potential. You don't have to have any special expertise or skills. Openness, creativity and motivation are enough ;)

1. register at app.xeem.de.
2. select a challenge.
3. work on it alone or with your team.
4. upload your solution as a PDF.
5. at the end of the challenge you will be informed by e-mail whether you have won.

To participate in a challenge, all you need is a laptop or smartphone with an internet connection. Then you register on Xeem, choose your favorite challenge and can easily participate with other users or directly with your own team (usually from 2 people). Within a video call you develop ideas together in a relaxed atmosphere and record them directly in the creative space.

You normally need around 2-3 hours to complete a challenge.
How hard you work on it is entirely up to you - as long as the challenge is open and online on our website, you have complete freedom.

As a participant, you have the chance to be discovered by companies and recognized as a talent or potential employee.
Depending on the challenge, one or more winning teams are awarded - some challenges only award first place, others also award second and third place.

The winning teams receive attractive non-cash or cash prizes, the type and amount of which are determined by the respective company. Prize money is distributed evenly among the team members.

In addition, all participants in a challenge receive an official certificate in recognition of their achievement.

After the challenge is closed and all teams have submitted their ideas, these will be sent to the challenge organizer. He is responsible for selecting a winning team. In order to increase your chances, your team and you should orientate ourselves on the basis of the specific task.

Challenges give you the opportunity to win non-cash prizes and cash prizes. If you are part of a winning team and receive prize money, you are responsible for paying tax yourself. But don't worry, this is only a minimal effort.

The ideas created during a challenge still belong to you. Companies receive a simple right of use and can talk to you afterwards if they would like to acquire extended rights of use for your idea. It is also possible that you and the company will work together. In this case, you would continue to work on the idea together.

After submitting your bank details, payment will be made within 2 weeks. In the case of non-cash prizes, it depends on the company in question and can therefore take a little longer. But don't worry, sooner or later you will all receive your well-deserved prizes.

xeem is an online platform that brings companies and young adults, such as students, together through short online challenges and promotes innovation. Based on practical problems and tasks, interdisciplinary teams develop new solutions, impulses and ideas. Not only does your company benefit from external impulses and the innovative power of young people, you also gain access to the talent pool and can show which exciting topics your company is involved in.

A challenge is an open task or problem. The challenge should not be designed so that there can only be one correct solution, as is the case with a math problem, for example. Rather, it should not be too restrictive and should be formulated in such a way that different ideas can emerge. Individual participants or interdisciplinary teams develop creative ideas and concrete solutions for you as part of the challenge. An example of a challenge would be: “How can we improve the driving experience during an autonomous car journey?”

You can look for an exciting topic within your company and come up with a challenge idea yourself. If you do not yet have a suitable topic in mind, we will be happy to support you. We can arrange a virtual meeting for this. After consultation with us, the challenge will be made public.

• You define the task and provide additional material if necessary.
• The challenge is published online.
• Participants submit solutions in the form of a PDF file.
• You receive all submissions for evaluation.
• You select the winning team and communicate the decision to Xeem.

After the challenge, you will receive the ideas of all participating teams. You are free to decide which team submitted the best idea for your company. You then give us feedback on which team has won.

First you select a winning team. Then you tell us who the winners are and we simply send you the bundled contact and bank details of the winning team. This way you can easily transfer your prize to the winning team.

In addition to the challenge ideas, you will also have access to the contact details and skills of the participants. This gives you the opportunity to attract new talent to your company and contact them directly by email.

A challenge gives you a simple right of use. This allows you to use the ideas freely for your company. You also have the opportunity to continue working on the ideas together with the teams.
