Erfahrungsbericht von Elias, Praktikant im Consulting bei OCM
Elias hat in seinen Semesterferien ein dreimonatiges Praktikum im Bereich Management Consulting bei OCM absolviert. Mit ihm spricht unser HR-Team über seine Erfahrungen bei OCM.
Praktikant*in bei OCM: Kaffeekocher und Aktenkopierer oder bedeutsamer Mitarbeiter?
Ich habe mich bei OCM stets als wichtiger und vollwertiger Mitarbeiter erlebt. Während meines Praktikums habe ich weder einen einzigen Kaffee gekocht noch eine Akte kopiert 😉. Stattdessen war ich komplett ins Projekt eingebunden, war bei Kunden-Meetings dabei und habe das Team mit Analysen und Recherchen unterstützt.
Wie würdest du die Arbeitsatmosphäre bei OCM in drei Worten beschreiben?
Offen, motivierend, authentisch
Was sind deine Key Learnings?
Während meines Praktikums habe ich bei der Optimierung von Vorgängen in der Supply Chain und im Einkauf ein tieferes Verständnis für diesen Bereich entwickelt. Das Gelernte reicht dabei weit über die in der Universität behandelten Themen hinaus. Zudem konnte ich durch begleitetes sowie selbstständiges Arbeiten in Microsoft Excel und PowerPoint meine Fähigkeiten in diesem Bereich stark weiterentwickeln.
Wovon hast du in deinem Praktikum am meisten profitiert?
Ich habe direkt in der Praxis gelernt, wie eine Unternehmensberatung funktioniert, welchen Tätigkeiten ein Consultant nachgeht und wie in der Branche gearbeitet wird. Diese tiefen Einblicke waren für mich hochinteressant und haben mir bei meiner beruflichen Orientierung sehr geholfen. Durch mein Praktikum bei OCM hat sich meine Begeisterung für das Berufsfeld nochmal verstärkt. Ich könnte mir gut vorstellen, nach meinem Studienabschluss bei OCM als Berater einzusteigen.
Gibt es etwas, das du neuen Bewerber*innen empfehlen würdest?
Ich kann nur jedem raten, sich auf jeden Fall bei OCM zu bewerben! Es war für mich eine super interessante und spannende Zeit, aus der ich sehr viel mitgenommen habe.
Elias, vielen Dank für das Gespräch und hoffentlich bis bald bei OCM!
Bist du auch bereit, OCM mit uns aufzubauen und selbst daran zu wachsen? Wir freuen uns auf dich!

Our Values
Your problem, our problem
We are problem solvers and optimisers. We make our client’s challenges our own. With the perspective of an entrepreneur or business owner, we take responsibility and always strive for the best possible results. We commit fully and dare to break new ground in order to find and implement the most appropriate and sustainable solutions.
Be curious and innovate
We are driven by curiosity and the desire to learn. We want to better ourselves every day, and actively shape the changes of our time. Innovation, passion, and receptiveness to new ideas allow us to offer up to the minute services and solutions.
Be authentic - play for the team
We are team players. Helpful and down-to-earth, we always keep the common goal at the forefront of our minds. The power of discussion replaces hierarchies – we talk openly and honestly. Trust, empathy, and authenticity are the values that underpin our actions, our demeanour, and our desire to collaborate.
Challenge - Commit – Deliver
Challenge: We strongly believe that the best ideas come from dialogue and the exchange of ideas. We therefore encourage everyone who works with us to bring forward ideas (thesis), to challenge these ideas (antithesis), and thus contribute to the optimum solution (synthesis).
Commit: We do everything in our power to guide our clients on a path to success. Even the best solutions are ineffective without the support of everyone involved.
Deliver: Our commitment applies not only to the present moment, but to the actual, sustainable implementation of a successful solution!
Simplicity
If you can’t explain something simply, you haven’t understood it – one of our most essential mottos! We want to convince with results, solved problems, and added value – nothing else!
An obsession with improvement
To see how an improvement is developed, is implemented, and then helps our clients achieve their goals motivates us and brings us great pride. Setting ambitious goals every day and measuring ourselves against the highest standards engenders our aspirations and drives us to strive for excellence.
