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.

Pay:

  • Pay for RNs in the hospital follows the union step scale which factors in degree and length of service. The current base rate at our metro hospitals for a bachelor's prepared new grad nurse is $46.20/hour.
  • Specifics around pay including shift, weekend, and/or float differentials would be discussed at the time of the job offer.

  • There may be availabilities in Home Care or a wide variety of inpatient units within the 12 hospital campuses of the Allina Health system that hire new grad RNs, such as:
    • Cardiac Telemetry
    • Float Pool
    • Inpatient Physical Rehabilitation
    • Medical Surgical
    • Neurology
    • Oncology
    • Orthopedics
