Proud to be a Guardsman

Proud to be a Guardsman

by Vannie Castello

I remember applying to Guardsman SVG Ltd. and being accepted for the one-week training programme that you must undergo before you are officially employed.

On September 11, 2003, I became an employee as a static guard. {{more}}

During the sixth month of my employment, I became the first guard to receive the prize for Employee of the Quarter. This was not the end of my hard work, for two months later I was promoted to the cash-in-transit department where I became the first female escort in the company.

I am very proud to be a part of this firm. I have come a long way and as the days, months and years pass and with God’s help there is nowhere to go but up.

There are a lot of opportunities one can attain if only they put their best foot forward and be very responsible.

If you ask me to choose, Guardsman SVG Ltd. will be my one and only choice, because we are “Simply the Best”.
