Solomon Ravariere

From January 2023 to June 2023, I worked as a security officer at a busy conference building. During this six-month period, I gained valuable firsthand experience in maintaining safety, managing daily operations, and interacting professionally with a wide range of people.

My main responsibilities included conducting regular patrols of the facility grounds, parking lots, and perimeter areas. These patrols were essential in ensuring the safety and security of the property and everyone within it. I remained alert at all times, checking for unusual activity or potential hazards, and responded promptly to any concerns that arose.

Another key part of my role involved greeting staff, guests, vendors, and contractors as they arrived at the facility. Providing a courteous and professional first impression was important, as it helped foster a secure and welcoming environment. Through this, I developed strong communication and interpersonal skills, learning how to remain calm and composed in a wide range of situations.

I also maintained detailed and accurate logs of all security-related activities. This not only helped with internal reporting and accountability but also taught me the importance of organization, attention to detail, and proper documentation.

Though my time in the role was relatively short, it was a valuable experience that taught me discipline, situational awareness, and how to work independently. I developed a deeper appreciation for the responsibilities that come with ensuring the safety of others and the importance of staying vigilant and professional at all times.
