Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What can you expect?
During your training contract, you’ll rotate through four six-month seats across different practice areas, giving you a well-rounded experience and the opportunity to discover where your passion lies. You’ll gain hands-on experience working on complex cases and projects, supported by a dedicated mentor and supervisor in each seat.
Your rotations may include areas such as:
- Commercial Disputes
- Corporate & Debt
- Commercial & Regulatory
- Real Estate
- Employment & Immigration
While we try to accommodate your preferences, seat allocation is determined by business needs and availability.
Alongside your day-to-day work, you’ll participate in workshops, group activities, presentations, and networking events, helping you build strong relationships across the firm. You’ll also develop key skills through tailored training sessions and engage with colleagues at all levels.

We welcome applications from:
