The interview process went smoothly and I was asked about previous employment and why I want to be a security guard. The interview process was followed by a mandatory ride along with a security officer. It went very well as well. In fact, afterwards I said I liked it and they hired me. I went in the following week to fill out tax forms and other paperwork. After the first day of training, I received a call saying they prefer other, more experienced security guards and that I wouldn't be hired. This sounds shady to me because when I went to pick up my check for 1 day of work and turn in my keys, the other co-owner was there and he had no idea I was let go and said his business partner didn't communicate with him about the decision. Yet the company just placed a new ad on Craigslist looking for entry level employees. They knew I had no security guard experience yet passed me through the interviews, made me do the ride along, and had me go through training (even just one day). Why lead someone along?
