I applied online. I interviewed at Allied Universal (Mesa, AZ) in Nov 2016
Interview
Called in to the site to do an interview with the account manager and site supervisor. Then they promise you things like shift preference, days off, everything they tell you in the interview is a 100% lie to get you in the door because so many people quit every month they'll hire you as long as you have a pulse.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Allied Universal (Orlando, FL) in Apr 2016
Interview
Poor hiring process. After good observance , hiring is based more on an individuals background more so then their experience. I've seen a lot of former law officers , federal officers and even military get security positions very easily and they made poor security overall. Those with the prior experience were oftenly overlooked. Everything was about background and not experience.

Question 1
Binary questions in relevance to my experiences and background , the director seemed more interested in my background then my general experience.

Interview
Overall, it went very well. I got the call the day after I applied online and they set up the interview for the following day. I knew immediately that I would get the job based on the job descriptions they mentioned as they described my duties and responsibilities.
