HOOK Foundation Year Two is one of the most uncertain points in a medical career. Northern Ireland might be a better next step than you've been told.
After F2, the path forward isn't always obvious.
Core Training applications. Specialty Training. Academic pathways. Locum work. Time out of programme. Moving abroad. The decisions stack up and the pressure to choose correctly is real.
For doctors at FY2, SHO, or Core Trainee level, locum work in Northern Ireland is worth considering seriously.
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.

Here's what we see regularly:
- Doctors who take SHO-level locum posts in Northern Ireland to build experience in a preferred specialty before CT1 applications.
- Doctors who've taken time out of programme and want to work clinically while they make longer-term decisions.
- Doctors who want to earn well for a defined period — 3, 6, or 12 months — to clear debts, fund further study, or simply build financial security.
NHS Trusts across Northern Ireland offer good clinical supervision, varied case mix, and genuine exposure to acute medicine in environments where junior doctors are visible and valued.
