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.
The Uni Connect outreach programme aims to reduce the gap between the most and least represented groups in terms of progression to Higher Education.
You will work with colleagues from within the University of Bradford and across the Go Higher West Yorkshire partnership to ensure the successful delivery of the project. This will include working within the university to arrange and manage events and activities to raise attainment and aspirations, and – most importantly – support the application and transition of pupils into Higher Education. These events may take place at the University of Bradford, at a partner institution, at schools/colleges or in community locations across West Yorkshire and involve young people aged 13 to 19 and their key influencers (parents, carers, and community, teachers, advisors or other professionals). You will also work within the University of Bradford to support signposting of schools/colleges to existing outreach activity.
