Alumnus of Marshall's undergraduate program here -- much love for the school! Have heard good things about IBEAR as well, particularly for Asia-Pacific recruiting (USC maintains a strong presence through overseas offices in Shanghai, Tokyo, etc.).
We did have our fair share of finance recruiting, at least for undergrads -- boutique firms like Houlihan Lokey, as well as bulge brackets recruiting mostly for LA and San Francisco. Consulting recruiting for undergrads was limited to Bain, Monitor, Accenture, etc. though (BCG was considering recruiting and McKinsey was not active on campus).
From my interactions with MBA students during my time there, it sounds like we obviously had strong recruiting for media/entertainment, as well as for any major employer in California, regardless of industry (Toyota North America, Boeing, etc.).
