Bio
Devin Golets
I met Ibiyemi when she helped place a co-op student from TMU with our startup. She was a huge help to me in making sure we found the right student, and throughout the semester, she was an excellent resource for me for professional development. She also volunteered to help us with our startup by appearing as one of the professional speakers in our health and wellness program, so students from across Canada have benefitted from hearing her speak about career development! She's a delight to work with.
Brooke Crewson, MBA
I sought guidance from Ibiyemi while career searching while I was completing my MBA. She was super helpful, listened to my needs, and walked me through an exercise where I learned how to align my strengths with my passion to find the right role. if you are unsure of your next career move I highly recommend connecting with Ibiyemi for advice.
Claudiu Filimon
I worked with Ibiyemi at Ted Rogers School of Management as part of Toronto Metropolitan University and I have been pleasantly impressed with her leadership and the care she takes of her team. I was also equally impressed with her career development experience and track record in helping graduate students and other clients. She understands the importance of candidate experience and how to support team members and have them be successful. I appreciated her collaborative approach and even more when she was the most proactive manager I have worked with and sourced her candidates. Ibiyemi's track record and accomplishments speak for themselves!
