Requirements for Employment

Clean Criminal Record - This means no misdemeanor convictions within the past five years and no felony convictions, ever.

Security Permit - As an employee of SOS, you must obtain a private security permit from the State of Wisconsin Department of Licensing and Regulation. This permit initially costs $95, but it is good for two years, and the renewal fees are about half that.

High School Diploma - You must have a high school diploma or equivalent. This is necessary in order to be capable of filling out complete, accurate, legible reports on a daily basis.

Physically Fit - You must be physically capable of standing for long periods of time, doing constant foot patrols, and be able to apprehend and detain violators if necessary.

Good Hygiene - Security is a high profile position with a lot of interaction with many types of people. It is important that the security officer portray a professional image in attire and cleanliness.

Weekend Availability - This is the busiest time for security companies as many customers have addition hours on weekends. Some special events only have weekend coverage. We ask that employees are available on two out of three days of Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It does not have to be for a full eight hour shift. We have shifts that are as short as four hours.
