Application Question(s):
- 1. Everyone here is required to get and maintain an alarm agent card through the Department of Justice – which, the company would pay for. But is there anything on your record that would prevent you from obtaining that card?
- 2. What is the ideal job for you now? – because this will be a part-time position
- 3. How long did you see this part time job benefiting/working for you? – Short-term (6 months or less) or Long-term (12+ months).
- 4. Our goal is to protect our clients’ sites through watching remote cameras according to our procedures in a professional manner, is that something you feel you would be interested in and may do well?
- 5. All the shifts are 6 hours each –
-We are currently hiring for Nights and Weekend shifts. The days can vary based on your availability but we definitely need weekend help both days. The weekday shifts would be 6pm-midnight and the weekend shifts would be either 6am-noon, noon-6pm, or 6pm-midnight. It would be 12-18 hours per week with the opportunity to pick up more shifts if you wanted. Is that something you could do with the nights and weekends?
-And FYI, this does not have to be a permanent schedule…every semester everyone submits their preferred shifts and we try to accommodate everyone.
- 6. So just to make sure, you are available to work every weekend, right? And are you available to work holidays as well?
- 7. Showing up on time at the committed work shifts is extremely important for this position as finding a substitution in the 11th hour is extremely difficult. Do you have family or other obligations that may lead to last minute no shows? Are you a punctual person?
- 8. Would you say in past job experiences that you have had no call, no shows? Or excessive tardiness? Are you a responsible person with good work ethic?
- 9. Do you have problem working with computers for a 6-hour shift?
- 10. Distracted monitoring is not protecting our clients’ sites. Texting or using electronic devices like phones and smart watches are the common causes of our monitoring failures, they are not allowed at our Monitoring Stations while on duty. Is that okay with you? What is the longest you have gone without using your personal electronics, outside of breaks?
- 11. If hired, would you be able to come in for training? – The training times are 6am-noon the first two days with the total number of training sessions at about 4 for most candidates before they can work a regular shift. Is that okay.
- 12. Do you have reliable transportation?
- 13. Just to let you know, we do start at $19.50 an hour. Graveyard is $21.00
-Then after 60 days, you will be eligible for a 10% Performance Award bonus (majority of our Agents do get this bonus) and Quarterly Merit Pay Differentials is an extra pay, adjusted quarterly according to merits. So, is all that okay?
