My consulting role at OMS afforded me invaluable experience in project leadership, client relationship management, and problem-solving. I developed my ability to structure complex projects, deliver client value, and collaborate with diverse and talented team members. Importantly, having the opportunity to observe and learn from incredibly talented and bright senior consultants significantly contributed to my professional development.

The consulting model at OMS helped me to develop my confidence as a consultant and nurtured valuable consulting skills such as client focus, teamwork, project management, and communication. When I started looking for full-time jobs after graduation, my several years of consulting experience through OMS helped me to position myself as a more “experienced hire” rather than a “new hire.”

OMS elevated my professional consulting skills. Before joining OMS, I had worked in leadership positions for multinational organizations and as a consultant to boutique social enterprises. OMS provided me with the crucible to blend my leadership experience with a professional and evidence-based approach to serve clients and scale solutions. I’m most grateful for that experience, specifically the opportunity to learn from and be mentored by Dr. Peter Hausdorf, who became the role model I try to emulate as I grow my company.

OMS provided an invaluable training ground for me to learn foundational consulting skills that set me up for success in my roles as a consultant, scientist, and leader. After three years as a consultant, what I remember most about OMS is the opportunities to work collaboratively with highly skilled teams, gaining exposure to diverse types of client work and seeing what I learned in class come to life with clients. OMS fuelled my passion for making a meaningful impact on organizations and employees.

Working as a consultant with OMS was a game-changer for my professional development. The experience not only taught me how to implement effective training, drive DEI initiatives, and develop robust selection methodologies in real-world settings, but also provided invaluable mentorship that built my confidence and expertise. OMS’s focus on evidence-based practices and collaborative problem-solving continues to shape my approach as an I-O practitioner today.

During my time as a consultant at OMS, I had the opportunity to develop foundational skills that I continue to use in my career today. Through my involvement in several projects including conducting focus groups, facilitating trainings with managers, and contributing to the creation of a leadership framework, I was able to enhance my skills in many areas including presenting academic research findings in an accessible format and communicating effectively with clients.
