Current Employee Testimonials
“Interning at Roseburg helped me achieve my current role by providing the opportunity to learn hands on with some of the most advanced people and equipment in the industry. Roseburg gave and continues to give me an incredible opportunity to excel in my career. Their commitment to the community and their core values sets an amazing example." 
“The internship program with Roseburg was an incredible opportunity that enabled me to gain real-world experience. This program has equipped, encouraged and propelled me to grow as a young professional, which has lead me to discover new avenues of passion within my current role today.” 
“I had the benefit of being a member of the Roseburg internship program three times. Throughout the summers I not only was able to gain work experience for school, but also was given the opportunity to improve upon my career applicable skills and to refine my ability to present myself in a professional setting. Each summer I was able to return to familiar faces and familiar tasks, but with increasing responsibility and expectations as well, for which the internship program helped prepare me. From this I was able to work as a technician during the school-year and maintain a good connection with Roseburg, which ultimately put me in the position to accept a job offer when I graduated school.” 
“My internship with Roseburg Forest Products provided me with an excellent platform to grow an develop as a future leader. I was able to work hands-on with hourly employees and senior leadership alike, which ultimately prepared me to step into my current role as a supervisor with an edge that otherwise I would not have possessed.” 
“Before becoming employed with Roseburg, I had spent two summers as an intern in the IT department, while attending OIT. My first two summers allowed me to get more experience in the networking and systems side of IT. After that, I then decided that I wanted to develop software instead, and was hired with Roseburg as a Software Developer after graduating from OIT in 2016. Working as an intern got my foot right in the door, and gave me the experience and the excellent opportunity for working here or anywhere else in the IT department.“ 
"Roseburg’s internship program offered me the opportunity to build real-world experience while being surrounded by knowledgeable and experienced professionals. I developed a skillset and knowledge base throughout my internship that proved invaluable to my professional development. I would not be in the role I am today if it were not for the opportunity Roseburg’s internship program afforded me.” 
“My time as an intern here at Roseburg allowed me to challenge myself both physically and mentally. I was able to use my knowledge from school in the field to help make forest management decisions. I really love how much effort and time goes into developing interns here at Roseburg Forest Products. I think we have a great overall intern/mentoring program.”

My name is Liam Cooley, for the summer I’ll be working as one of the Continuous Improvement Interns. I currently live in Knoxville, Tennessee, where I attend the University of Tennessee Knoxville (Go Vols) but I’m originally from the Pacific Northwest. I was born in Tacoma and lived in Washington State for the majority of my life so I love spending time outdoors. I use my spare time to read, go on camping trips, canoe, or really just any activity I can use as an excuse to get outdoors. Intern Alumni Testimonials
