Interview process was pretty straightforward. I applied online at their website. I was called and I scheduled an interview with them a week later. Interview was behavioral. I was given the new hires packet at the end of the interview. After the interview, I was asked to do a drug test and a background check. There was a group orientation that I had to attend and that was where I turned in all my forms.

InterviewI applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Northeast Security (United States) in Jul 2014
Was sat in a room, told about the job, the interview was fairly strait forward, they where very vague however on advancement and career opportunities...as there where limited. They obviously knew this and tried to conceal the fact to get you hired. Other than that there was not too much to go over as each site director did things differently.

InterviewI applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Northeast Security (Waltham, MA) in Mar 2009
Met with the HR person, she informed me of the basic information and asked if I would like to meet with the account manager. I drove to the site to meet him and then back to her all in the same afternoon. Then she told me to attend orientation/training the following week, which was sitting in a room watching 30 year old videos then answering a simple quiz about the videos at the end.
Interview Questions
- There really weren't any. I think they'll hire just about anyone when they need guards.
