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.

About the Role

This is a rare and exciting opportunity for a passionate Dispensing Optician to join the expanding team at Niall O’Kane Opticians in Rochester, following a substantial practice refit.

Because we care deeply about patient care, eye examinations are 1 hour long - giving our DOs significantly more time to invest in each patient, understand their visual needs, and deliver a truly bespoke dispensing experience.

With our expanded high-end brand collection, you’ll have the opportunity to get hands-on with frame buying, styling, visual merchandising, and attending brand training sessions led by supplier reps.

Additionally, we are proud to be the first opticians in the UK to host the Nikon Lenswear Vision Atelier - an exclusive, state-of-the-art suite with digital measuring towers that allow for ultra-precise, bespoke lens dispensing to a fraction of a millimetre.
