What You’ll Be Doing
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.
You’ll assist older adults with:
- Personal care and mobility support
- Meal preparation and hot drinks

No Experience Needed? Don’t Worry!
We’ll train, support, and encourage you every step of the way. We’re looking for the right attitude and values, such as:
- Have you cared for a loved one or supported a family member?
- Are you naturally chat-friendly and comfortable making others feel at ease?
- Do you enjoy helping people and making a positive impact?
If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!
