Security Guard resume example
Security employers check licences and reliability before anything else. This example leads with licences and shows site size, incidents handled and attendance.
Template: Clean
What to include
- List your security licence, first aid and fire safety training with dates.
- Describe the sites you guarded: size, type and number of people.
- Show reliability: attendance record, incidents resolved, reports written.
Why this resume works
- Almost every bullet contains a number, so the reader can see the size of the result.
- Bullets start with an action verb, not with “responsible for”.
- It fits on one page, which is what most recruiters prefer.
- Standard headings and real text mean applicant tracking systems read it correctly.
