Guidance on Using AI Tools in Application Process
AI tools like ChatGPT or Copilot can be great for planning and preparing your application, but your answers must be your own. We urge you to show us the real you: Your application should reflect your skills, experience, and motivations authentically. It’s fine to use AI for ideas or to check spelling and grammar, but don’t let it write your answers. Applications that rely on AI-generated content may be withdrawn. By applying, you confirm your responses are based on your own knowledge and achievements. Think of AI as a helper, not a substitute. We want to understand you, not an AI tool.

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.
