A policy change for on-campus recruiting that requires all companies to conduct first-run interviews on campus has excluded some companies from certain services provided by the Office of Career Services (OCS).
Boston Consulting Group (BCG), which has in the past done its interviewing at its Boston offices, is one of the best-known companies excluded because of the new policy.
The move will prevent BCG from using OCS's online account at eRecruiting.com. Also, OCS will not collect student resumes for the firm as it has in the past, OCS officials say.
According to Murray, at least one other consulting firm, Booz, Allen and Hamilton, decided to withdraw from on-campus recruiting because of the policy change. She said she knows of no other companies affected by the change.
Despite the restrictions, BCG has a table at today's Career Forum at the Gordon Track and Tennis Center.
The firm is also running a case interview workshop on Oct. 23 in the Science Center.
BCG Boston Associate Recruiting Coordinator Linda A. Toyias said interviews are usually done at the Boston office because of the large number of candidates.
According to OCS Recruiting Program Director Judith Murray, BCG usually receives between 300 and 400 resumes from OCS each year.
OCS and BCG officials played down the significance of the move.
