I would like to express my appreciation to Universal's convoy PSD team.... This team was right where it needed to be, when it needed to be there and with the right equipment to get it done.
Applicant Screening & Testing
Our pre-employment background investigation exceeds that of most of our competitor's. We employ a comprehensive screening and hiring process, which includes carefully vetting each candidate by performing thorough background checks, investigating employment histories, verifying security clearances, firearms licensing, security guard credentials, and more.
In addition, all candidates are subjected to a pre-employment written psychological inventory and a psychological interview. The are also required to undergo a battery of aptitude tests, and a five-panel drug screening.
In-Service Training
Universal personnel receive extensive in-service training in criminal law, police defensive tactics, firearms and American Red Cross First Aid.
Our training program exceeds that of many of our competitor's. In addition to in-class training, the knowledge of our management team is passed on to new recruits systematically and through procedural reinforcement.
In addition to state-mandated certification courses, Universal personnel must attend:
Security Clearances
For personnel assigned to U.S. governmental posts, these individuals are screened to the standards of the U.S. Government Secret Clearance Program.
