Join Croydon, London’s largest and youngest borough, known for its diversity, vibrant community, and fantastic opportunities. With close proximity to central London and the South East, Croydon offers a dynamic place to live, work, and enjoy. As home to one of the largest commercial districts in the UK, it’s a major hub for shoppers, professionals, and visitors alike. Excellent transport links, including the iconic trams, make exploring the borough and beyond easy. Croydon’s rich cultural scene, recognised as the birthplace of various music genres, adds to its unique appeal.
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.
