Reasons to use Rodeo
Iβm in my final year doing Economics and I donβt know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer β it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) donβt need a masters. Letβs look at the ones youβd 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 β that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

StrongYour economics background and your summer at a regional bank line up with what PwC looks for on the consulting scheme. Applications close in four weeks.
See breakdownIt 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.
Why you're a good match
Youβve got the grades and the economics background, and your bank internship is exactly the experience this scheme looks for. Apply soon β deadlines close within the month.
Experience fit
Your summer at the bank plus your econometrics coursework map directly to the day-one responsibilities on this scheme β client modelling, market briefings, and deal support.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right β and where to focus when applying.
You'll be on the phone, on LinkedIn, meeting people, and constantly building relationships.
This isn't an admin job.
It's a commercial role where the more you put into it, the more you can get out of it.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
We're not expecting you to know recruitment already.
You might be a graduate.
You might have worked in sales, hospitality, or retail.
Or you might simply be looking for your first serious career opportunity.
What matters is that you're:
- Ambitious β you want to progress and build something for yourself.
- Confident β you're comfortable speaking to people you've never met before.
- Competitive β you like targets and you like winning.
- Resilient β recruitment has plenty of highs and lows, and you don't give up easily.
- Curious β you want to understand people, businesses, and what makes them tick.
- Commercial β you're motivated by results and the opportunity to earn more as you become successful.
- Personable β you can build genuine relationships rather than sounding like a salesperson reading from a script.
And you'll need to be comfortable picking up the phone and making things happen.
