Answers to common questions about the Rosewood Family of Companies, the rotational internship, and the application portal.
About Rosewood
What Is the Rosewood Family of Companies?
Rosewood Family of Companies is a family-owned conglomerate headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina, with a mission to multiply the blessings and opportunities entrusted to us. Our support teams serve a diverse group of operating companies working in retail services, staffing, project management technology, residential installations, leadership development, and construction. See About for the full family.
What Is the Rosewood Rotational Internship?
A paid, full-time, 10-week summer program at our Raleigh headquarters. Rather than sitting in one fixed placement, interns rotate through every Rosewood operating company and support department, contribute to real projects, and complete a capstone project. Along the way, the program includes:
- Mentorship from experienced professionals
- Leadership development sessions
- Networking with peers and Rosewood executives
The Program
What Do the Rotations Look Like?
You rotate through each operating company and each support department, spending one to three days in each. Rosewood sets the rotation schedule once you're placed — there is nothing to choose on the application.
- Operating companies: ProVantage Corporate Solutions, InDemand Services, Cruxos, Penmarc Inspired Spaces, Helmwise, and Southern Concepts Coastal
- Support departments: Human Resources, Sales, Marketing, Finance, Facilities, Legal, and IT
By the end of the summer you will have worked alongside every team that keeps the business running.
What Is the Capstone Project?
Every intern completes a capstone project that applies what they've learned across the rotations to a real business need. The project changes each summer and is introduced once the program begins.
Is the Internship Paid, and What Are the Hours?
Yes. The internship is paid and full-time (40 hours per week) for 10 weeks, starting in June.
Where Is the Internship Located, and What About Housing?
The program is based at Rosewood's headquarters in Raleigh, North Carolina. Housing is not provided, but interns from outside the area have used short-term rentals such as Airbnb and NC State's summer housing, both a short drive from the office.
Eligibility
Who Is Eligible, and Which Majors Is This For?
- Junior status, or at least 64 completed credit hours
- Cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher (exceptions may be considered for extenuating circumstances)
- Majoring in Accounting, Business Administration, Economics, Finance, International Business, Management, or Marketing
Because you rotate through every department, the program fits any of these majors: finance and accounting students see the Finance team and the operating companies' numbers up close, marketing students work with Marketing and Sales, and management and business administration students see how operations run across six very different businesses.
