Security / surveillance
In security you hire to trust: the person guards assets, access and sometimes other people. A hiring mistake can turn the guard into the risk.
From an industry risk to a better-supported decision
-
Industry risk
The sector needs people who are honest, steady and able to stay calm in tense situations, often alone and at night. The challenge is to anticipate honesty and self-control before putting someone in charge of guarding assets or controlling access. A bad read of the candidate does not translate into low productivity, but into direct exposure to theft or incidents. A comparable signal of integrity and impulse control is missing.
