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.

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.

Research/Finding appropriate grants

To find appropriate grants, you'll need to evaluating sources critically, organise information, and communicate your findings clearly. For the latter, this means the ability to use the Google Workspaces suite (Google Drive, Google Sheets and Google Docs etc). You'll need to search and sift through potential grants, to understand if the grant is appropriate for The Mikaere Foundation and if we meet the eligibility criteria.

Grant Application/Bid Writing

This will involve pulling the application together (which is varied, depending on the grant organisation) and submitting the application. You'll need good oral and written communication, and will need to pay attention to detail and have meticulous proofreading skills
