"(Situation and Task) As the Security Trainer for my current company, I train recruits and prepare them for their state licensing exam through the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services. Once they pass this exam, they can work as fully trained and licensed Security Officers. My latest class of recruits held ten recruits. (Action) I spent a great deal of time working with each person on understanding the fundamentals of security protocols, the ins and outs of security software, and ethical decision-making in the security industry. (Result) Eight of the ten recruits successfully gained their Security Officer License on the first attempt. I am very proud of this successful track record and attribute this to my open and communicative teaching style. These recruits know that they can ask any questions and come to me for a clear explanation on any topic that they may find confusing. I am eager to take this training experience and apply it to your Security Manager role."

"Since I am new to the industry, I have not trained staff members on security procedures yet. However, I was the gym manager at my previous employment, and one of my job duties was training new staff members. I would train anywhere from one to eight members at a time, going over policies and procedures and emergency preparedness. I feel confident in my communication skills and public speaking. I am sure that confidence will carry over when I have the opportunity to train staff members on security procedures."
