OCR Rights and Responsibilities

HONESTY/INTEGRITY

We expect that students represent themselves honestly in all aspects of the hiring process including, but not limited to: information listed in resumes, unofficial transcripts, and test score documentations, as well as during phone and face-to-face interviews. Barnard Career Development reserves the right to verify GPAs and courses listed on resumes and unofficial transcripts against the official transcript from the Registrar’s office. If it comes to Barnard Career Development’s attention that you are misrepresenting yourself in any way, disciplinary action will be taken.  Violations of this policy may result in any of the following based on the severity of the misrepresentation:

• Dismissal from the On-Campus Recruiting Program for the remainder of the semester/academic year.
• Meeting with the Director of Career Development, Robert Earl, and appropriate BCD Recruiting Staff members for further review and disciplinary action.
