Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.

Role Details
The Advanced Nurse Practitioner in Clinical Research (ANPR) post provides an exciting opportunity to expand the research nurse role in line with other established advanced nursing roles both within the RMH Trust, nationally and internationally. The ANPR is a highly experienced oncology nurse who will work autonomously or with medical colleagues, demonstrating highly developed specialist knowledge and skills in the diagnosis and management of cancer research participants.
Complex clinical management, strategic planning, education, research, and audit are key components of the role in line with the national framework for advanced clinical practice. The post holder will exercise advanced clinical expertise, levels of judgement, discretion, and safe clinical decision-making in clinical care through physical assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and management of research participants in accordance with regulatory frameworks, policy, and laws governing clinical trials.
The ANPR will work closely with principal and co-investigators and other members of the research team and, where appropriate, take on the sub-investigator role for clinical trials as delegated by the principal investigator and with the approval of the individual trial sponsors. There may also be a requirement to care for non-trial patients as directed by the clinical lead, to meet the demands of an expanding oncology service.
