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.

What We're Looking For
We're looking for an experienced Principal Engineer, Staff Engineer, Lead Engineer or equivalent with a strong track record in large enterprise environments.
You should be genuinely full stack, with significant hands-on experience across both.NET and React, and comfortable operating at architectural and technical leadership level. Previous experience within banking or financial services is essential, ideally within a complex, highly regulated environment. This is not a pure management or architecture role — you'll remain technically hands-on while influencing engineering direction across multiple teams.
