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.

You will be joining a close-knit, experienced and supportive team whose members work collaboratively, share their expertise and support one another to achieve the best possible outcomes. A strong team fit is therefore essential: you will be approachable, an excellent communicator and someone who values open dialogue, shared problem-solving and positive professional relationships.
This is a fast-paced and varied role supporting a large and diverse caseload of deaf children and young people across Norfolk. You will need to think flexibly, respond confidently to changing priorities and use your professional judgement to tailor support to individual needs. Creative, solution-focused practice and effective partnership working with children and young people, families, educational settings, and colleagues across health and social care will be central to the role.
This is a unique opportunity to make a meaningful difference within a highly regarded and forward-thinking service. Working alongside colleagues who are recognised locally and nationally for delivering positive outcomes and championing inclusion, you will contribute actively to the team’s collective success while bringing your own strengths, ideas and specialist expertise.
