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.
DS3 is an EU PEACEPLUS-funded cross-border project, led by the Irish Central Border Area Network, which seeks to engage SMEs, micro businesses, community and voluntary organisations and citizens in a variety of activities which will help close the ICT skills gap in rural communities. The project will be carried out in towns and villages with a population of less than 18,000 across seven council areas. Ulster will manage the creation and deployment of a digital platform.
