  • Deliver luxury customer experiences – Welcome clients with warmth, listen deeply to their needs, and guide them expertly through curated designer frames, lenses and stylish eyewear.
  • Optical mastery & precision – Learn to fit, adjust, and care for premium eyewear, ensuring every customer leaves perfectly satisfied and stylishly equipped.
  • Advanced eye care support – Assist in pre-screening and optical tests using cutting-edge diagnostic equipment to provide the best vision advice.
  • Uphold uncompromising standards – Contribute to daily store excellence, including visual merchandising, impeccable presentations and seamless operations.

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.
