The Right Way to Start a Career

Rosendin’s summer internship program is true to our mission of Building Quality, Building Value, Building People®. Far from errand runners, our interns are given a high level of responsibility across a wide range of projects. They provide meaningful contributions to their teams while learning from the very best in the industry. Internship focus areas include project management, estimating, safety, BIM, finance, and marketing. Each June, we hold Rosendin Intern Week, where interns can network with one another and train with multiple operational and non-operational departments within the company.

Internships at Rosendin

The thing I absolutely love about Rosendin is that they care about their people. This was shown to me during my first summer internship and is still very evident as I go through my second-year internship. This experience with Rosendin has been amazing because it immediately immersed me in the electrical construction industry. It has been a pleasure to work alongside the team at Kaiser Permanente in Woodbridge, VA as they have provided me with knowledge that I will carry with me as I progress with this amazing company. I am truly grateful that I could have this experience and I am excited to continue my journey with Rosendin Electric.

“I started as summer help with the Union. They had me moving pipe, inventorying things, all the grunt work that they had out there. The transition from working in the field to an intern in the office was happening while I was in the field. My plan from the beginning was to use that experience and knowledge and take that next step into actually interning and then make it my full-time job. When I knew I wanted to work full-time with Rosendin was a couple of weeks into the internship. I really liked how the company was run and I was getting a lot of guidance from people that I worked with. As an intern, the first task I had was a feeder log. It was pretty intensive and it felt like I was actually contributing to something that they used going forward in the project. The fact that they, while checking me, allowed me to do something important and integral to what we were doing out there sparked my interest.”

“My overall experience as an intern here at Rosendin has been incredible. I think every year pretty much gets better. My favorite thing is when I get to learn new tasks. I love that they give me the opportunity to help in so many different areas and get as much experience as I possibly could. I think it’s really great how everyone pushes each other because of the ESOP and I that it’s owned by employees, so everyone understands that the work that they put in they reap at the end. I like that kind of culture for a company.”

“Rosendin’s internship program has been a great experience. I have learned a lot about project management and the construction industry thanks to the Rosendin employees who were willing to answer my questions and teach me. I hope to return to Rosendin next summer for my second internship.”

“Rosendin has provided me with a great internship experience this summer. Working on-site has allowed me to gain valuable knowledge about the construction industry; I was not only exposed to the various departments within Rosendin but also collaborated with other contractors on the job—supplying me with tools necessary for my future as a student and an engineer. Rosendin has a great company culture which has allowed me to learn a plethora of information from my mentors and fellow interns, and I am so grateful for the opportunities that Rosendin has provided me!”

“I went through the Intern Boot Camp at Rosendin’s Headquarters in California in 2015 and there were no more than 15 total interns that attended. At the end of my internship, I went back to school and took a few weeks to think things over, and before the next career fair even started I had already accepted a full-time position with Rosendin as an Assistant Project Manager. As a whole, the company has been awesome so far and I see a lot of things that are headed in the right direction with always looking forward, willingness to change, and at the same time a willingness to change something if there is a better way to do it. Rosendin allows their interns to fit best to the path that they want.

I was looking for a career change, and with no knowledge about the Construction Industry and Project Management, joining the Rosendin 2022 Summer Internship Program was a blessing in disguise. Throughout my internship, there was never a moment where I wasn’t learning. I was challenged, kept curious, and eager to learn more. When offered to come on full-time, there was no hesitation in accepting the offer. New to the industry, I was faced with moments of imposter syndrome. However, it’s a different motivation and drive when your mentor, team, and company believe in you and invest in your growth. At Rosendin, the opportunities to grow your career are abundant. You won’t be pigeonholed to just one role and department. If you want to venture into another department and are willing to learn and have a strong work ethic – the possibilities are endless. Rosendin is like a treasure chest! You have the key to unlock all the endless gems that Rosendin has to offer.

Before I started full-time with Rosendin, I interned for two years. My internship helped me to get hands-on experience with writing RFIs, doing submittals, and reading drawings and documentation that we didn’t necessarily cover in class. I decided to stay with Rosendin because I felt like everyone was really trying to help me do better. I have a mentor, and I have someone that gives me goals and expectations to get to the next step.

Joining the renewables division, first as an intern and now full time, is an invitation to a tight-knit group of professionals with a wealth of experience. My internship was very self-directed, and I had the agency to focus on personal areas of interest. After making the transition to full time, I feel valued as an essential member of the team and have been given the freedom to continue to learn about different scopes of work. The renewables division at Rosendin is well-positioned to continue its growth trajectory, and I feel that I can make an impact with the work I do and grow along with the division. An internship at Rosendin is an opportunity like no other.

Interning at Rosendin was the jolt I needed to confirm my path into project management. My time spent with Division 73 was nothing less than a great time on and off the site. The team I worked with, showed me the true power of learning, collaboration, and dedication. They were a great model of what Rosendin represents and are the reason why I happily decided to come back full time now as an APM.

I had the opportunity to work with several other contractors during my college internships, and I value each one of those experiences. The last internship I did was with Rosendin, and I immediately knew that this was going to be where I was going to spend my career. The way Rosendin conducts business and invests in its employees is what sets us apart from other contractors. There are a certain drive and motivation at Rosendin that can be contagious where people are motivated to succeed and constantly improve. At my age, that is the most important thing to me – being constantly motivated and moving forward.

I met many really cool people from all over the US during intern week that I still like to keep in touch with today. Working as an intern at the San Francisco airport, I learned an enormous amount about project management and the importance of communication with your team, other contractors and clients. I was able to practice what I learned in my school projects at San Jose State by setting goals, deadlines and communicating effectively to avoid difficulties throughout the year. Once I graduated, I was pleased to hear from one of my mentors that I had an opportunity to continue working full-time at Rosendin. Currently, I get to work with low-voltage systems at the airport alongside the most knowledgeable, skilled and experienced professionals in the industry. My team has been extremely supportive and helpful in training me and it’s been a pleasure so far working with everyone.
