Hiring contractors should be the simple part of building a global team. In reality, it's where teams get caught out most — misclassification, contracts that don't hold up locally, and payments that turn into a monthly admin headache.

In this live session, George Trakas, Customer Experience and Growth Manager at RemoFirst, breaks down how to get it right wherever your talent is based. Expect straight answers and real examples, not theory.

We'll cover:

  • Classification with confidence, where the line really sits between a contractor and an employee, and how to avoid the misclassification mistakes that cost teams dearly.
  • Staying compliant everywhere, what changes country to country, what stays the same, and how to keep contracts and payments compliant without setting up a local entity.
  • Paying people properly, getting contractors paid on time and in their own currency, and the admin you can quietly hand off.

There'll be a live Q&A at the end, so bring your questions.
