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.

Relevant experience may include:

- Test-driven development, test automation and strong test coverage.
- DevOps tooling and continuous delivery pipelines.
