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.

Once patients have been assessed by a therapist you will help them to regain their previous abilities, or learn new ways of achieving their goals. This is usually done individually, but can be in small groups. If a patient requires two people to treat them you will help the physiotherapist during that patient’s therapy.
You will also be responsible for administrative tasks such as using computers, telephoning other departments and recording your treatments in patient’s notes.
