Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
A degree or academic background would be advantageous. Use of Oxford style footnotes beneficial.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
This is flexible, project-based freelance work, initially supporting the preparation of a journal article, with the potential for further assignments.
