Interquest Detection Canines is currently recruiting for a canine detection handler. This job does not require a guard card, law enforcement training of ANY type or form. We do not arrest, detain, interrogate or question anyone. We utilize our trained detection dogs to alert our clients to the presence of contraband substances in schools, the work place and other locations. There is no need to include all your guard, law enforcement or military training or Martial Arts experience or training in detail. You won't need that for this job.

We do give a priority to Military and Law Enforcement, but because you've earned it, not because of the specialized training you've received.

YOU DON'T NEED PRIOR K9 Experience, is it a benefit?? Of course, but it's not required.. A housewife can be just as qualified as a retired or former Police Officer. We're looking for a good fit to the group, someone who can talk to kids without scaring the crap out of them and wants to work with very little supervision.

We are looking for a responsible, hard working and trustworthy employee THAT CAN WORK WITH LITTLE TO NO SUPERVISION. We need someone that loves dogs, has a yard to allow the dog to play and be a dog when he/she comes home from work (THE DOGS LIVE WITH YOU) and someone who likes kids. (95% of our clients are High Schools and Middle Schools)

We are looking for someone that can pass an extensive background that has a DEPENDABLE Truck or SUV or other vehicle that can safely transport a trained detection dog to the workplace daily. You must also have a valid drivers license and vehicle insurance.

You must LOVE to drive, our handlers drive a great deal. Anywhere from 20-160 miles in one day depending on the client they are looking to service. We have clients from Long Beach to Lancaster from La Verne to Santa Barbara. We drive a lot. You must be able to work weekends, we have work available 7 days each week and we like to rotate the weekends so no one is stuck all the time. We drive a lot.

We do not offer any medical, dental or retirement benefits. We are MOSTLY seasonal with summers and school holidays largely off. As I said above, 95% of our clients are schools so when they are out, we are very slow. We are a tight knit team that helps one another out and gets the job done.

Our dogs are non-aggressive hunting breeds, Labrador Retrievers, Pointers, Golden Retrievers and an occasional Springer Spaniel. We pay for all Vet costs, food and any other cost associated with the dogs. We provide uniform shirts, hats, jackets and K9 equipment. You provide your own pants, belt and shoes.

We pay twice a month, on the 5th and the 20th. Pay is by the day, not by the hour due to the varying schedules our clients demand. Some days you may work as little as 4 hours, some days as many as 7 or 7 and a half. We do on occasion work evenings, Proms, School Dances, etc.

If this sounds interesting to you, please email us a nicely written resume and cover letter, not an email, a cover letter. Don't ask us to call you for more information, if you have more information, write it. We will call you if your cover letter and resume interest us. DO NOT CALL US. It will automatically DQ you.
