Vescom's core business, uniformed security guard services, is a far cry from the stereotypic "sleeping badge." Vescom guards are scrupulously-screened, highly-trained individuals worthy of the term security officer. Over the years, Vescom has created a detailed profile of the qualities that are needed in an effective security guard. They can be summarized in four words: Honesty, diligence, leadership and helpfulness.
Honesty - Vescom security guards are trustworthy professionals who will not withhold information or hide improprieties. They see the big picture -- that disregarding rules or ignoring protocol ultimately endangers everyone.
Diligence - Vescom security personnel are natural observers who are constantly assessing their situation. They are the type of people who "don't miss a trick," possessing excellent recall and attention to detail.
Leadership - An effective security guard must have a level of personal presence that commands respect. This quality is not dependent upon a person's age or physical stature, but is an intangible trait that we look for in all Vescom guard candidates.
Helpfulness - In order to be an effective security guard, the hard qualities of honesty, diligence, and leadership need to be matched with this fourth soft attribute. A sincere, caring security guard -- one that is liked as well as respected -- has the power to inspire others to "take the high road" -- turning employees and even visitors into effective safety ambassadors.
Personality and character are critical benchmarks for a Vescom security guard job candidate. Skills, training and experience are also central factors in Vescom's hiring decisions.
