Summary

As a security guard I developed strong observational skills, learned how to handle emergencies calmly, and also gained a reputation for keeping people safe. I would also like to add that I was able to Implement security measures that lead to a significant reduction in theft or loss. Lastly, I would like to say that one trait that I am really strong with is that as a security guard I can successfully de-escalate a dangerous situation without it reaching a dangerous point. As a former retailer, I had very excellent customer service skills, learned about inventory management, and even achieved sales goals.
