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.
You will be using your strong technical skills to make a significant contribution to development projects, from initial concepts through to final delivery. Throughout the year, you are likely to work on a range of projects and an interest in biomedical engineering will be key. There will be opportunities to take part in activities such as concept generation, rapid prototyping, and preparation of technical reports and other high-quality documentation. By working alongside our experienced project staff, you will learn how to perform analysis of engineering designs, how to design and develop test rigs, and how to design and execute experimental test programmes.
We also typically run a range of development projects staffed by teams of interns, in which you are tasked with developing a selected project proposal as far as possible in 6 months. This will give you the invaluable opportunity to drive the direction of the project, experience key project milestones, and present your finished work to the company.
