Was offered a phone interview but we opted for a zoom interview to combine steps 1 and 2 of the interview process. Interview was easy. After the interview, the manager explained the positions they have available and how their site ran.

Manager called on separate occasions to discuss the offer. Was told to complete background checks and was ghosted. What was the point of wasting someone's time? Bad hiring practices. Not sure I would recommend.

Anonymous Interview Candidate in Savannah, GA
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Sunstates Security (Savannah, GA) in Nov 2018
I submitted an application and was quickly contacted by the "corporate recruiter". The recruiter seemed as if it was a rush to get me interviewed. I obliged them and accepted a short notice interview . After the first interview, sometime passed. I was contacted again for a second interview. This interview was a group interview. During this interview it was made clear that I would need to prepare for a move during the Christmas holiday. Several weeks passed and there was no communication one way or the other. I sent an email with a follow up phone call to both the recruiter and the district manager to inquire if I was still being considered or not. That was over a week ago. Not even the courtesy to let me know that I was not being considered. Very Very unprofessional.
