A security guard CV puts service background first where there is one — ex-army and ex-police applicants are hired ahead of others and should not bury it. Then it names the site type, because guarding a bank branch and guarding a housing gate are different jobs. The example above does both. For a security guard with no experience, physical fitness, height and a clean police record are the qualifications, and this format states them plainly. It works for Nepal, India and security jobs in Dubai or Qatar.

Security guard CV for freshers
A security guard CV with no experience states the things security companies screen for: height, fitness, age, a clean police record and your willingness to do night shifts. Add any security training, fire safety or first aid. If you have done a job with responsibility — a watchman, a shop, event crowd control — list it. For Dubai, security work is licensed by the regulator there, so mention it if you have held such a licence.
