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.
What you need to know to succeed
As a digital marketing agency that specializes in social media, it’s imperative that you understand and are able to demonstrate experience of the following:
- Social media landscape - You stay up to date with the latest platforms and can articulate their differences and opportunities to clients. This includes but is not limited to, Reddit, Discord, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Twitch, Facebook, Snapchat.
- The gaming industry - A lot of our clients come to us as we’re specialists in the gaming space. Having knowledge of the industry, what’s happening, what’s working, what isn’t, and being able to impress clients with your expertise will give you a massive advantage.
- Candidates who organically engage with creators on social media and speak confidently about them throughout our interview process will be hugely beneficial.
Our three non-negotiables
- Input - Join in, take part, be heard, and contribute. Team members looking for an easy ride won’t succeed here.
- Output - Focus on quality, if you’re not happy with what we’re creating then stop and ask why. Everything we create should be good enough for your portfolio.
- Together - Most importantly, achieve it together! Not feeling it, that’s okay, we’re one team and support each other every step of the way. No egos. No judgment.
What’s it like in the New Gen offices?
- Startup culture in a larger agency group. Our Creative team consists of a smaller team operating in a larger agency group, between London and Manchester.
- Hybrid culture - As creatives, we know the importance of face time regularly. We equally understand the importance of flexibility. Our team will be required in office 3 days a week minimum.
- Location - We’re based in the city, so right in the hustle and bustle of London and Manchester.
