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

- Assisting with investment rounds, shareholder agreements and articles of association
- Managing client relationships and liaising with other parties to drive transactions forward efficiently
You’ll have the opportunity to take ownership of your work, collaborate closely with senior colleagues, and play a key role in the continued growth of the team.

- Have 2+ years’ PQE in corporate and commercial law
