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.

About you
You'll be someone who can look beyond the immediate system request to understand the underlying business need. Technology won't always be the answer, so you'll be comfortable challenging requirements, asking the right questions and working collaboratively to identify the most effective solution.
You'll be organised, adaptable and able to manage multiple priorities while building positive relationships across the business.
You'll also demonstrate our values of Respect, Aspire, Courage, One Team and Diversity.
