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.
Flexible working options can be explored—get in touch during the interview if this is something you’d like to discuss. While we might not always be able to meet every request, we’ll always listen with an open mind—no judgment here.
What You’ll Bring
We appreciate that you won’t know it all from day one—that’s what the team is for! What does matter is:
- A strong attitude and a willingness to pitch in and contribute
- Teamwork and a positive mindset
- Bonus points if you have a forklift licence (but no worries if you don’t—we’ll support your development)
What’s In It For You
