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.

Overview:
The Scottish Government is expected to introduce a Public Service Renewal Bill. While the precise content of the Bill is still to be finalised, it is expected to be taken forward in Year 1 of the new Scottish Parliament and will be a vehicle for different aspects of the Public Service Reform Strategy.
The Public Body Support Unit will lead on this work for the Scottish Government and is seeking to recruit a new team to take forward and coordinate the wide-ranging Scottish Government interests. The Bill has potentially significant cross-cutting implications across different parts of SG and a number of public bodies and so will require extensive internal and external engagement and coordination.
