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.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

What You'll Be Working On

Own hands-on UX design for two complex security products - a SASE solution and a firewall product - driving work from problem definition through delivery. Embed within cross-functional teams, partnering daily with Product Management and Engineering to define requirements, align on solutions, and deliver high-quality designs. Leverage and contribute to the shared design system to ensure consistency across products and reduce design debt. Leverage AI tools to accelerate UX workflows including ideation, rapid prototyping, content generation, and design iteration. Conduct lightweight user research as needed - including usability tests and interviews - to validate design decisions and uncover user needs; partner with the dedicated research team on larger strategic initiatives. Design for full user flows, error states, and edge cases with a focus on clarity, usability, and driving adoption of key product features. Present and defend design decisions at weekly design critiques, incorporating feedback to continuously improve your work. Build deep subject matter expertise across both products to inform design decisions grounded in user behavior and real-world security workflows.

What You Bring To The Role

Bachelor’s degree with 5+ years of UX design experience; or Master’s degree with 3+ years; or equivalent work experience. A strong portfolio demonstrating hands-on design execution for complex, data-dense, or technical SaaS products - experience in security, networking, or enterprise software is a significant plus. Expert proficiency with Figma and standard design tools; demonstrated ability to work efficiently within an established design system. Proven ability to work independently across multiple products simultaneously, managing your own priorities within a fast-moving team structure. Experience conducting lightweight user research - usability testing, interviews, or observational studies - and translating findings into actionable design improvements. Familiarity with AI tools used in UX workflows such as generative design assistants, AI-powered prototyping, or automated research synthesis; a curiosity for adopting new tools that improve speed and quality. Strong communication skills with the ability to present design rationale clearly to Product and Engineering partners and incorporate critique constructively. A track record of shipping high-quality, production-ready designs consistently and on time.
