    TSOs are customer facing, non-armed workers who screen passengers and baggage at the security checkpoints, check IDs and boarding passes, help travelers get through security smoothly, as well as assess the area and detect potential threats.

    No prior security experience is required. TSA provides paid training to get you job-ready.
