  • Manage a data quality assurance team that designs and implements rigorous and scalable quality control processes, including running automated and manual checks, synthesizing actionable insights, and driving continuous improvement
  • Establish and maintain strong relationships with annotation teams (e.g. contractor, vendor) to generate high quality data, spanning phases across sourcing, contracts, onboarding / training, performance monitoring, etc.

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.
