A product of the youth system, he made his début in the League Cup tie at home to Macclesfield Town on 24 August 2011, coming on as a second-half substitute for Martin Petrov. His form in the reserves prompted Bolton to offer both O'Halloran and Joe Riley new three and a half-year contracts, committing them to the club until the summer of 2015. In March 2012, O'Halloran joined Sheffield United on loan until the end of the season, and made his début for the Blades on as an 81st-minute substitute against Chesterfield in a 4–1 victory at Bramall Lane.

O'Halloran scored in the game's penalty shoot out but United slipped to defeat. In August 2012, O'Halloran joined Carlisle United on a month's loan.

O'Halloran then joined Tranmere Rovers on loan on in November of the same year. O'Halloran scored the first professional goal of his career on 8 December as he scored in a 2–2 draw against Portsmouth, O'Halloran loan was extended by a further month on 7 January 2013, and then again until the end of the season on January deadline day.

He scored again in Saints' final home game of the season, to conclude a 3–3 draw with former club Celtic. St Johnstone rejected two bids from Rangers for O'Halloran in January 2016.
