Had an interview with Showsec today for some casual work. Anyone have any knowledge of this Company? Or have any Friends that have aorked for this Security outfit before?

Interview seemed to be brief. Asked a few questions which I responded to. The Woman happily typed my responses on her iPad and said yep to each one. So now it is a 10 working day lead time before I know.
 
Thankfully at this stage in life I have both Eyes :p

Juwt after a bit of experience. But do no want to scare off future Employers if they see I have worked for Showsec.
 
I just don't have any prior experience. I had my SIA Licenses since around July and October respectively. I was bored one Night in January so thought I would give their Online Application a go.

I just have about a decade of Customer Service skills behind me.
 
There were quite a number of applicants there today at 1pm. Around 30 or so. Then the next batch at 5pm.

I have a part time job of 24hrs in a Shop. But just fancy earning a bit more Money.
 
I would take what is thrown at me. When asked do I have any questions. I asked if there was an Events Calendar. To which I was informed there is Online when I get supplied with a login. Anywhow a Photo of me and some of my Documents was taken.
 
I do have a 24 hour contract elsewhere but just fancied some more income if possible.
The Woman interviewer told me I would know within 10 working days if I had a Job with them or not. Seems a bit OTT a wait time?

Cheers so far.

Cheers. I will look at the CPW Forum now and register. We all have to start somewhere.

I have a Frontline DS badge and CCTV badge.

I know it is early days yet and 10 working days lead time but I wish they would put me out of my misery :p

How long did you guys wait for a yes or no to employment after your interview with Showsec?

Thanks
 
You're welcome :)

Wow that email was quick :eek:

Suppose there is plenty of time for me yet afterall it was only yesterday.

I emailed Charlotte to say if she requires a reference to prove length of employment reference to email HR rather than contact my Line Manager. This is just Company policy.
To this I got an automated response stating she is out of office til Mon 23rd.

Bit rubbish really as I gave a good interview, but I got an email back yesterday stating I was unsuccessful at the interview.

Oh well better not to be involved with them incase any horrors did occur.
 
I have emailed Charlotte for some feedback. I will phone them if need be. In this day and age I would not be surprised for two facedness.

Cheers for your support fellas. I wont let this rest. Until I have unravelled the goings on and the transcript of the notes taken from my Interview.

Good luck with your shift however.
 
Bit a blow yesterday. Finally got a reply to the email I sent, asking why I were unsuccessful?

According to them. My answers to the questions were not up to Interview standards. This I do not agree with at all.

However I was told I could reapply in 6 months time. If I wished to do so.

Not to sure I want any further involvement with this poor so called security outfit.
