I am applying for jobs around where I live in West Virginia. I have filled out the application and did the recorded interview questions. I automated/robot recruiter said I pass that portion and should expect instructions for a live interview. I have not been contacted by phone or online or text. I have also tried to contact my closest branch office, but that number seem to be out of service. I have also left messages in the Pittsburgh office asking for help. Not response either. Is there anyone in this group that can help me? Thank youA few reasons…the officers may have more time at the site (if it has a progressive pay scale)…someone in your chain of command never submitted the proper paperwork someone figured that since your willing to do the job for less money, why give it to you.

The man who committed the worst mass shooting in U.S. history had an online bride from Uzbekistan who said he beat her, co-workers who feared he had terrorist leanings and a father who hosted a cable show in which he claimed to be president of Afghanistan. Omar Mateen, a 29-year-old security guard from Fort Pierce, had been on the FBI’s radar since at least 2013, when acquaintances — at least one of them a former law enforcement officer — warned authorities that he was prone to violence, made unspecified threats and seemed to have radical Islamic ideas.

Four former security guards are suing G4S Secure Solutions for $3.5 million, claiming the international security company’s kiosk in a Gresham shopping center was run by a devoutly Christian supervisor who told employees their gay family members were going to hell, played videos about the Illuminati and warned that the security kiosk could be attacked by demons.
Lawsuit Says Gresham Security-Guard Supervisor Wanted To Defend Shopping Center Against Demons
The suit says supervisor referred to the Gresham Station security kiosk as a “church,” posted Bible verses on the walls, and held daily “prayer circles” with two other guards.
Four former security guards are suing G4S Secure Solutions for $3.5 million, claiming the international security company’s kiosk in a Gresham shopping center was run by a devoutly Christian supervisor who told employees their gay family members were going to hell, played videos about the Illuminati and warned that the security kiosk could be attacked by demons.
The religious discrimination lawsuit, filed Oct. 5 in Multnomah County Circuit Court, says when the four guards complained to upper management about supervisor Sarah Houser, they were fired.
Florida-based G4S is one of the largest security contractors in the U.S. The company runs security teams for the UK Foreign Commonwealth Office in Afghanistan, but stateside it’s mostly a staffing agency for private security guards. Its Oregon contracts include Google’s data center in The Dalles and wafer manufacturer Siltronic in Portland.
The four former guards—Wayne Rush Jr., Andrew Gale, Jimmy DrennanIII, and Alphonso Nunez–had previously worked with G4S at other Portland-area sites before arriving at Gresham Station, a shopping center with an Old Navy, a Dress Barn and a Bed Bath & Beyond.
In the lawsuit, the four guards say Houser held training sessions for Gresham Station security guards by showing a series of Christian videos on YouTube and playing recorded sermons “about God, demons, conspiracies and the Illuminati.”
The suit says Houser referred to the Gresham Station security kiosk as a “church,” posted Bible verses on the walls, and held daily “prayer circles” with two other guards. The suit says she told Rush that “they needed more Christian people to work at the Gresham Station because they were ‘opening the gates for demons to enter the site.'”
The lawsuit says Houser told Rush in May that gay people “have a choice, and they will burn in Hell because they don’t have God in their lives.”
Rush told her his future mother-in-law and his fiancee’s brother were both gay. The suit says Houser replied, “Well, they are going to hell Wayne and that’s just the truth and sometimes the truth hurts.”
The suit says the four guards submitted written complaints to regional managers about the “fervent evangelizing” by Houser and two other guards at the kiosk. The suit says G4S responded by firing all four guards.
G4S Secure Solutions and Houser did not respond to requests for comment.
