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.

The Role
As a Class 1 TIG Welder / Fabricator, you'll produce high-quality welded and fabricated components for technically demanding, bespoke engineering projects.
This is varied, project-led work involving different materials, fabrications and engineering challenges rather than repetitive production welding.
Your responsibilities will include:
- TIG welding and fabricating components from engineering drawings
- Reading and interpreting isometric, fabrication and engineering drawings
- Working accurately with both metric and imperial measurements
- Preparing materials through cutting, sawing, drilling, grinding, pipe bending and threading
- Carrying out Class 1 / ISO 3834 welding and fabrication
- Reading and working to Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS)
- Producing fillet, lap, corner and butt welds
- Working in accordance with ASME IX and ISO 15614
- Working with carbon steel, stainless steel and high-nickel alloys
- Supporting components through X-ray and radiographic inspection
- Maintaining high standards of quality, workmanship and safety
- Supporting wider engineering projects in the UK and potentially overseas

- The ability to read and interpret engineering and fabrication drawings
- Experience working to WPS documentation and welding procedures
- Knowledge of welding preparation processes
- A full UK driving licence
