But today, with the digitization of records, it is easier for citizens to gain access to all the information of proceedings that is allowed for their use. Since this is criminal justice information, it is the duty of the law enforcement to keep the information secured and avoid misuse of confidential data. Ever since data was transferred electronically, it has made the organization work more smoothly and efficiently. Electronic submittal from law enforcement agencies is also under process so that it is easier to process all the information faster through a digital portal. We have always been reactive to public records in the past as we work in a public entity.

There are more challenges in recruiting individuals for senior positions than lower positions within the public sector. We are facing a lot of challenges providing employees the platform to grow and retaining talent since there is a difference in pay scale and rate of innovation in these roles. We recruit our staff from colleges through our student worker program where studying and employment opportunities converge. Students get proper training to enhance their learning skills and they gain valuable experience. Students are perceived as future assets that are paired with senior employees who mentor them and transfer their knowledge. This business knowledge transfer model is highly significant for the organization because the mentoring provided is a unique experience that cannot be found in a classroom environment. When the senior engineers decide to leave the organization, there is an army of future leaders ready to take on the mantle. Providing the right platform to encourage innovation and ideas are also pivotal for building the next generation to work competently.
