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.

Our intention is to develop the successful apprentice into a long-term member of our finance team.

Taught study sessions will take place during paid working hours at First Intuition’s Sheffield centre, 18 Hawley Street, Sheffield, S1 4WP. The exact training timetable is being finalised, with study expected to begin in autumn 2026. Learning will be supported by practical experience and development in the workplace.
