Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
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.
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.
There will be opportunities to develop any of these further as well as supporting expanding clinical interests such as the pleural service and innovative interventional bronchoscopy techniques. There are weekly Lung Cancer MDTs, a general chest clinico-radiological MDT, and bi-monthly regional ILD MDTs. LTHTR is a cancer centre and is the central hub for the regional ILD service.
