WEST PALM BEACH, FL -- One thousand people are being hired for what sounds like a dream job.
A West Palm Beach security company is looking for people who want to work security at the Superbowl in Miami in 2010.
The employment will only last about six weeks, but that's not expected to stop applicants from showing up for a job fair today.
It doesn't matter who wins the Superbowl, Andrew Luchey feels like a champion.
Andrew Luchey CEO A & A Security: "Persistence outdoes resistance, we hung there and they gave us the opportunity."
Luchey says this has been a two year project and A & A Security competed with companies nationwide.
Luchey's small West Palm Beach security firm won the NFL contract to provide guards for the Pro Bowl and the Superbowl at Landshark Stadium in Miami next year.
Luchey says, "The NFL contract calls for us to provide them with over one thousand guards all unarmed and they will be required to have a "D" license -- which is required by the state. That involves a 40-hour training course. We do offer that certification."
If you're interested, A & A Security will hold a job fair November 5th, 2009 from 11am to 6pm at the offices of A & Associates at 8144 Okeechobee Boulevard in West Palm Beach.
Applicants should attend the fair, fill out an application and have their "D" license for security or sign up for security guards "D" license training.
The employment will run from January 7, 2010--February 20, 2010.
Luchey says the NFL has not let him know what specific positions his employees will fill, but he believes the positions will include security for the field, tunnel, locker rooms, ticket areas, and also for personal protection.
