Program Overview
A Training Contract is your opportunity to put your knowledge to use in a professional setting. Over two years, London trainees will complete four different seats to ensure they have a well-rounded Training Contract. Our graduate recruitment team will ensure that your selection meets the firm’s and the SRA’s requirements.
Program Details
During your Training Contract, you will attend legal training and workshops specific to each practice area in which you are working and participate in practice group meetings where recent legal developments and updates are discussed. You will also be invited to attend briefing sessions given by knowledge lawyers on key legal developments and in-house databases.
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.
