How Radicals are selected

It’s about who you are,not just what’s on your résumé.

We connect senior and executive-level AI professionals with organizations that are ready for their next step. Radical is building a high-caliber community of permanent and interim professionals, ranging from AI engineers and architects to AI leads. We select candidates before a role is even posted, so companies already know you’re exceptional before the first interview.

How we see you

You're more than your CV.

We don't rank you on keywords. Before you enter the community you take the APAC assessment, and it maps the four human qualities that make you exceptional (-ly good in AI). This is what we are looking for, and what you take with you.

APAC profile
Adaptability

You thrive in change. You learn fast and stay effective when everything around you shifts.

Personality

You bring more than skills: ownership, curiosity, and the drive to keep growing.

Awareness

You see beyond the task. You act responsibly and grasp the bigger impact of your work.

Connection

You're grounded in your values and build real relationships across teams and beyond.

This becomes your profile once you take the APAC assessment. Ten to twenty minutes, and it's yours.Your APAC profile

Questions

Curious where you stand?

The APAC test shows where you stand on the essential human skills of exceptional AI professionals. Honest answers to what most people want to know first.

  • Our proprietary assessment of the human qualities behind exceptional AI professionals: Adaptability, Personality, Awareness and Connection. You get your personal report; we learn how you adapt, connect and decide. No answer key, no trick questions.
  • Yes. The APAC test, your personal report, and membership of the community are free for professionals. Companies pay us when we make a match.
  • Radical focuses on senior and managerial AI professionals, for permanent and interim roles. If you're not there yet, you're welcome to take the APAC test and see where you stand; the report is yours either way.
  • Roughly three weeks from your first click to a community decision: the APAC test, a real conversation, and a considered answer. No black hole, you hear from us at every step.
  • You join the living room: meetups, knowledge sessions, coaching and peer-to-peer learning, plus first access to senior roles and interim projects that fit who you are, long before they're public.
  • Yes. The community is European; events centre on the Netherlands but sessions are hybrid and roles increasingly cross borders. If the human factor fits, geography rarely blocks it.
  • Not in the classic sense. We're a community first: we select on who you are, invest in your growth, and match you when the right role or interim project appears. We don't send CVs around.
