Based in the region stretching from Denver, CO, to Cheyenne, WY, we are committed to excellence in security services. We take pride in hiring veterans, former law enforcement personnel, and first responders and strongly encourage individuals with such backgrounds to apply. However, we are equally committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse workplace.

We are looking for thoughtful, well-written answers that provide specific examples and demonstrate your qualifications and critical thinking. Use the S.T.A.R. Technique: During the interview, we encourage you to use the S.T.A.R. method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to answer behavioral questions.
