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.

See breakdownIt 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.
Why you're a good match
You’ve got the grades and the economics background, and your bank internship is exactly the experience this scheme looks for. Apply soon — deadlines close within the month.
Experience fit
Your summer at the bank plus your econometrics coursework map directly to the day-one responsibilities on this scheme — client modelling, market briefings, and deal support.
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.
As participants in this game, you will step into the shoes of a consultancy team, tasked with formulating a cohesive solution and providing recommendations to fictional company. You'll need to consider how a financial partner, like Citi, can support the company’s ambitions across these key areas.
This isn't just about understanding the problems; it's about crafting innovative, practical, and strategic solutions that address the company’s current needs and future aspirations. Get ready to think critically, collaborate, and propose game-changing ideas!

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Following the game there will be networking with the wider Citi team.
Please note that this event is part of the Citi Takeover Day at Imperial Business School that will take place on-campus on October 5.
This event is open to current Imperial College London and Imperial Business School students only. Applications will close by 3:00 PM on September 28.
