I've been asked several times recently what I mean when I say "hire the finest of the best" and "choose the right security officers from a pool of candidates." As a result, I'll demonstrate hiring practises as well as an interview and hiring process to ensure that only the top candidates are hired. Almost every Security Companies in Bakersfield CA has a website where potential employees can apply. Due to California's high unemployment rate, each open position will attract hundreds of applicants. While this is bad news for candidates, it is fantastic news for security firms and their clients, since they will be able to select the best prospects from a huge pool of applicants.

To avoid wasting the time of both the candidate and the recruiter, the security firm should ensure that all important questions are answered on the application. What is the candidate's level of experience? Is he or she in possession of the relevant California licenses? What is the candidate's wage expectation and how far is he willing to travel? Recruiters can conduct a short phone interview to determine which prospects to invite to the actual interviews by asking the proper questions on the application.

At least two recruiters should conduct separate interviews with clients, each asking questions from a pre-prepared question sheet and getting a good sense of the candidate's skills and expertise. The interview should last around thirty minutes and should include questions regarding the candidate's communication skills. If both interviewers agree that a candidate should be moved ahead, he should be provided a security scenario to read.

Then, based on the information provided, he should be asked to fill out a daily activity report and an incident report. Report writing is an important talent for security guards, and no Security Guard Companies in Bakersfield CA should be employed without confirming that the officer can examine and report facts.

A criminal background check and an employment reference check should be undertaken when a security officer candidate has been identified. As a result, individuals with violent or criminal records, as well as those who lie on their applications, will not be hired. After going through this process, a business will be able to hire the finest of the best. However, finding the appropriate personnel is only the first step. They should now be trained and held accountable for the rest of their time with the security firm.
