People
At Whelan Security, we have benchmarked our employee selection process against the best in the security industry and identified rigorous screening and demanding selection criteria that we believe best allows us to provide superior security personnel to our clients. This screening and selection process meets and exceeds the recommendations established in the Private Security Officer Selection and Training Guideline (ASIS GDL PSO – 2010) published by ASIS International, the preeminent organization within the security industry. Beginning with our recruiting efforts to attract employees who are seeking careers all the way to the final background evaluation, our selection process goes well beyond technical requirements. In other words, from our initial aptitude testing to interviews to the background evaluations, our emphasis includes not only rigorous screening, but also a focus on the attributes, traits, and values that incorporate the philosophies and expectations of Whelan and our clients.
At Whelan, we are able to attract employees that might not traditionally consider the contract security industry due to the strength of our competitive compensation, comprehensive employee benefits, professional development programs, and significant advancement opportunities.
Although we comply with all specific selection criteria requested by clients, our standard 10-Star Employee Screening Process includes the following:
This thorough evaluation process ensures that we not only hire only the best qualified candidates for employment but that we assign the right person to each unique assignment based upon personality traits and technical skill requirements.
