Today we discussed on the various question and approach that we wanted to ask the security company we have choosen for an interview.
Shared our experience with Wee leong on the event that my team members did, but i never go, haha. But i got go on a wednesday, so that we can conduct a interview with them, but they need me do things before they can interview. haha. what thing leh? cannot say la (secret). Globewerk people all very nice, very helpful when we interview them.
Other than the interview with event organizer, we need to interview security company, so Wee leong give us some insights on the questionaire to ask the security company, below are the various areas we talk about. He too treated us lunch. haha, but the chicken “buay sek” not cook. Thanks for the lunch.
Regarding the literature review, our library have very limited books on security, which all are not relevant. As for the police magazine, we found a few but not useful. The librarian give us a contact to the police libarary, however, the security clearance there are very tight, so we decideded not to go there, as it might be pretty troublesom, time consuming and worse of all, we get nothing in return.
Next week have to start calling up on the agencies listed in our catalogue for more information such as pricing all that. Question is what kind of identity are we going to use? Is it a student or an event company. Kind of excited because can cold call.
