BCMS is the transfer process for certain blue-collar positions within the division. Positions posted through the BCMS process are open to any permanent University Housing employee who currently holds a position in the same title, with some exceptions.

To be eligible for a BCMS transfer, the employee must meet the following criteria:

• Currently employed in the same title as the BCMS they are applying for with in University Housing.
