The interviewer asks this question to see if you seem like an honest person who can keep confidential information secret. Allied Universal has clients who are actors, CEOs, millionaires and billionaires, musicians, athletes, and other high-profile individuals who wish to have their personal life remain confidential. The interviewer wants to be assured that you would be a good fit for these clients.

If you have worked security for high-profile clients before, focus on letting the interviewer know. You do not want to name the high-profile client, showing you are able to maintain confidentialty.

"I understand the nature of this business and how important it is to keep client's information confidential. I can promise I will never talk about any client to my family or friends. They already know that I refuse to divulge information about my job, so they don't ask. I am very good at keeping secrets and privileged information safe."

"I worked in healthcare before changing careers to the security sector. In my previous job, I was bound by HIPAA laws which protect patients' confidentiality. I understand the importance of keeping private information confidential and can assure you I will apply those same principles when working on security detail."
