How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Kempton Park; applications go into our talent pool and shortlisted candidates are introduced directly.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Before you hit apply

Mention how you handled absenteeism or roster gaps. It is the biggest daily headache for security companies.
Say how many officers you supervised and on which sites. The number matters more than the title.
