While working at a corporate office building, I was responsible for monitoring entry points and patrolling the premises during night shifts.

My task was to ensure the safety of employees and protect company assets while maintaining a visible security presence.

I conducted hourly patrols, reviewed CCTV footage for any suspicious activity, and logged all incidents in the daily report. I also coordinated with the front desk to verify visitor credentials.

Over six months, I helped reduce unauthorized entry incidents by 30% and received commendation from management for maintaining a secure environment.

A visitor attempted to enter a restricted area of the warehouse without proper clearance, becoming confrontational when asked to step back.

I needed to de‑escalate the situation while enforcing the facility’s security policies.

I calmly explained the policy, offered to contact their host for verification, and maintained a respectful tone. When the visitor continued to resist, I called my supervisor and documented the incident per protocol.

The visitor eventually complied after verification, and the incident was resolved without escalation. My supervisor praised my composure and adherence to protocol.

During a night shift at a shopping mall, the fire alarm activated on the third floor while I was on patrol.

My immediate task was to verify the alarm, ensure the safety of shoppers, and coordinate evacuation if needed.

I quickly inspected the area, confirmed a small electrical fire in a kiosk, activated the fire suppression system, and guided nearby shoppers to the nearest exits while notifying the fire department and my supervisor.

The fire was contained within minutes, no injuries occurred, and the mall resumed normal operations the next day. Management recognized my swift response in the quarterly safety report.

While monitoring the parking lot of a corporate campus, I observed an individual attempting to break into a vehicle.

I needed to intervene to prevent loss while ensuring my own safety and preserving evidence.

I kept a safe distance, called dispatch with a detailed description, and used a discreet hand signal to alert nearby security colleagues. I then positioned myself to block the suspect’s exit path without direct confrontation, and once the suspect fled, I secured the scene, photographed the vehicle damage, and collected witness statements.

The suspect was apprehended by police within 15 minutes, the vehicle’s contents were recovered, and the incident report contributed to a successful prosecution. My supervisor highlighted my composure and thorough documentation.
