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.

Working Arrangements

With the exception of actual meetings, the majority of the role could be carried out from home or in school at a time to suit the post holder as preferred. There are currently 11 full governing body meetings per academic year (monthly except August). The job holder will need to be flexible with regard to working hours and days as this is dependent on the prescribed meeting schedule of the Governing Body. At present, the meetings currently take place once a month at 3.30pm. The salary for the role has been calculated as an average of 6 hours per week term time only, however the majority of the hours would be worked on and around the dates of the meetings.
