π The Opportunity
A leading buy-side investment firm is looking for a C++ Engineer to join its low-latency engineering team, building the high-performance infrastructure that powers electronic trading across global markets.
You'll tackle complex performance challenges, optimise latency-sensitive systems, and work alongside world-class engineers on technology where every microsecond counts.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Iβm in my final year doing Economics and I donβt know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer β it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) donβt need a masters. Letβs look at the ones youβd 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 β that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
