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.

About this Employer

The company has a family atmosphere and therefore someone who can socialise and has a fun but professional personality is very important. We can teach the candidates about Telecoms, but not impact too much on their individual personality. Happy to teach from scratch if it means that the person we are bringing on board is the right person.

We have quarterly staff socials, Director lunches (which you are voted on via your manager), employee benefit scheme, dress down Fridays, Google Review incentives and much more.


After this Apprenticeship

Your earnings can increase over time with an apprenticeship. Find out about potential future pay.

You will receive training on the telecoms industry and, once confident in certain aspects, will undergo technical accreditation training to get a full understanding and qualification of the systems and partners with which we work alongside. Cross communicating between UC Support and Sales where needed to ensure we deliver the customer’s expectations.

The role has the potential of growing into its own role or the chance of progression throughout the sub-departments within the Unified Communication department (help desk, project managers, etc).
