QUESTION 9 OF 30

Do you have experience monitoring a CCTV system? What do you know about CCTV technology?

CCTV is short for 'closed-circuit television.' CCTV is, essentially, video surveillance. A working CCTV system relies on the use of video cameras to transmit a signal to security monitors, allowing security professionals to monitor a particular area by video; whether on or off-site.

Briefly break down the experience that you have with CCTV technology, being sure to express to the interviewer that you are capable when it comes to learning and effectively using new security technology.

"I currently have five security clients, and four of them have highly technical, integrated CCTV systems; some that transmit video to an on-site monitor and some that also have cloud integration, so the video stream is accessible in real-time from anywhere in the world. I was fully trained on these systems in a short time and am confident in my ability to learn the methods used by your clients."

"I am aware that CCTV transmits video surveillance to a monitoring location, allowing security services professionals to view one or many different areas of a building or premise at one time. I am tech savvy, having even installed a home alarm system for myself at one point. This experience makes me confident in my ability to quickly learn these systems used by G4S and your clients."
