Security Guard at Garda World Security

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Fort McMurray, AB (Canada) May 2009 – Reviewed Apr 24, 2013

Interview Details Lots of questions regarding conflict management and if you have certifications in weapons or self-defence. (not necessarily needed to get hired)

Interview Question – Situation where you disagreed with your boss and how you dealt with it. Same with co-worker.   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – I did not negotiate, I believe it was non-negotiable as part of the contract with the client I was going to work for. Worth asking if you can negotiate.
