      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at G4S (San Antonio, TX) in Aug 2010

      Interview

      g4s in South Texas has one person who dose the interviewing and hiring. He works in Austin and drives down to San Antonio. He knows nothing about the military, although g4s says they have a close partnership with the military. G4s dose not care really who they hire. The people they hire can hardly write their own names. there was an incident recently were a G4s employee push a emergency all off button thinking it was for the automatic door and turned off all the power for a whole floor of servers. It cost the client $$ Millions $$ and a couple of days to get the servers back online. I mean come on it's a big RED button that says Emergency ALL Off (do NOT push)
