Rodeo hits different

Everyone else gives you a search bar. Rodeo gives you an agent that gets it.

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.

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?

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.

BackgroundWhat you wantLong-term

What matters most right now

London or Manchester, starting salary £28–35k, something with a clear graduate development programme.

Target role

Graduate analyst or consulting scheme, ideally with a rotation across teams in the first two years.

Where you're currently at

Final-year BSc Economics, predicted 2:1. Internship at a regional bank last summer. Strong shortlist of grad schemes open now.

Your brief writes itself

Every chat, every CV tweak, every "actually I changed my mind" feeds a profile that reflects who you are now — not a CV you wrote in year 12.

It searches the market for you

Every day your agent scans new grad schemes, placements, and apprenticeships across the UK — matched to what you actually want, not just keywords lifted off your CV.

Only hits

No noise. No "well, it might fit." Just roles worth applying to — with a clear read on why, and what to lead with in your application.

How it works

Three steps, under five minutes, and your agent is already looking.
