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 should be a highly capable individual with excellent attention to detail, methodical working approach, a good engineering background with a sound understanding of and ability to apply fundamental engineering first-principles, and a desire to deliver the best possible solution at all times.
Applicants should have a tertiary qualification in a relevant engineering discipline and an enthusiasm for problem-solving. Previous experience working with composites, carbon fibre, moulding processes or jig & fixture development is an advantage but not a necessity.
