The Opportunity
Our summer internship is a 4-6 week programme for students who want to see how technology consulting works in practice. You'll join a live team from day one and work on real problems for clients in financial services and defence, rather than a side project.
The programme runs during the summer from our Newcastle office.
What you'll do at work
- Help design and test technical and analytical approaches to real problems
- Build and evaluate prototypes using [Python / C# / Java / other tools]
- Work alongside experienced developers, data specialists and consultants
- Share your ideas and findings with colleagues [and clients]
- [Finish the programme with a final project or presentation to the team]
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.
