Who you are

We’re looking for curious, thoughtful individuals who want to explore how their skills could fit into a career in Corporate and Institutional Banking. You don’t need any prior finance experience – just the right mindset and a genuine interest in learning.

You could be a great fit if you’re:

  • Intellectually curious: You’re fascinated by how things work and always keen to understand what’s driving decisions, trends, and opportunities.
  • A natural team player: You enjoy working with others, building strong relationships, and communicating clearly. You’re comfortable sharing your views and listening to different perspectives.
  • A problem-solver: You’re proactive, good at managing your time, and know how to prioritise tasks.
  • Detail-focused: You spot the small things that others might miss.
  • Analytical by nature: You enjoy digging into data, asking smart questions, and figuring out the “why” behind what you see.

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.
