      Security Guard Interview

      Jul 7, 2017

      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Allied Universal (Bellingham, WA) in Jul 2017

      Interview

      I interviewed with a recruiter at a hiring event on Monday but was not told that I needed to submit an application online. When I submitted the application I received a call from Edwin who did not seem to know I had already interviewed with the recruiter. I declined Edwin's first interview offer because it was 40 miles away and I did not want that commute. Edwin then said he would set up an interview with a company in town for a part time position. He said it was the only available position in my town even though the recruiter had already sent me a list showing several available jobs in town. An interview was scheduled for Wednesday for the part time position at T-Mobile. On Saturday I received a call from the local mall asking me to come in for an interview in one hour. It was a rush but of course I went. I was interviewed by 2 officers at the mall for approximately 30 minutes, which was mostly questions about how I would respond to various scenarios. At the end of the verbal interview I was given a brief written test in which I was required to write a brief "report" about the interview I just had. I was told I would receive a call maybe as early as Sunday. I went to the Wednesday interview at T-Mobile thinking I was well prepared as I had just had an interview with Allied, so I should know what to expect. The interview was completely different. The interviewer at T-Mobile invited me to walk around the facility with him, asked very few questions and did most of the talking. He also said he would give me a call the next day. As of today, Friday, I have not received a call from either of the persons who interviewed me, nor from Allied Universal.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Allied Universal

      Interview

      Very easy. Personal experience was that they sat me down, talked about the job, and it was pretty in and out. From there, I had a secondary sit-down with the supervisor at the office I was assigned, we finalized some things, got a permanent job site assigned near home, and that was it.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      I remember them asking about my experience at my previous job, why I left, etc

      I received an email asking me to come to an interview. Afterwards, I took the interview and had to do multiple screenings and certificate checks. They are particular about making sure you have all the necessary licenses. If you do not have a specific license, you will go through additional training before starting your job.
