Your New Role

We’re working with a leading global organisation within the electrical, digital infrastructure and data centre sector, who are looking for a Test Engineer to join their team in Reading. You’ll support daily production testing of electromechanical assemblies through test programme validation, technical support, operator training and equipment maintenance. You’ll also assist with the development, assembly and improvement of custom test equipment, including hardware, software, fixtures and test stations, while working closely with Production and Engineering teams to improve testing technology, quality and efficiency.

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.
