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.

- Comfortable managing several vacancies and HR priorities at once

Experience within healthcare would be helpful but is not essential. Applications are also welcomed from candidates who have worked in fast-growing, multi-site or customer-focused organisations.
A CIPD qualification, or currently working towards one, would be advantageous, although practical experience and the right attitude are equally important.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing business at an exciting stage of its development, take genuine ownership of the role and influence how its People and Talent function evolves.
