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.
As an AI Solution Engineer you might run a demo, support operational challenges, explore the latest LLM capabilities, join workshops, make discovery calls, and sometimes just spend a full day building PoCs and MVPs. No two days are the same.
