Questions for the Employee of the Month
We like to ask the employee of the month a few questions to get their perspective on the job and what makes a great officer, below are a few answers to common questions by our Employee of the Month:
Looking back, what are memorable achievements from your service so far?
Moving forward what are the next goals as a SADOC officer?
Any advice they would give to future prospects who might think about joining the SADOC?
Looking back, what are memorable achievements from your service so far?
So far I would say making an impact on people's time at DOC, both for fellow guards and inmates.
Moving forward what are the next goals as a SADOC officer?
I would like to learn more in the divisions that I am apart of so that I can further assist my community.
Any advice they would give to future prospects who might think about joining the SADOC?
Communication goes a long way. Talking and treating each inmate like a human being earns a lot of respect with most of them. But you also need to know when to be stern.
Divisional Spotlight - Human Resources
We asked Deputy Warden Katie Schneider and Captain Julia Whitehorse about the exciting world of HR and they took time out their busy day and gave us a glimpse "Behind The Curtain"
- What Does HR do on a normal workday?
- Human Resources division is one of the core divisions of the San Andreas Department of Correction. The division follows the employees from recruitment, performing some of their training, and keeps tracking of their development during their career.
What Drew you two to HR? - We believe the amount of paperwork and responsibilities the Human Resources division offers made both of us shine and love the division. It offered us the possibility and ability to be effective and apply so many things into the department to give it all of our love and attention.
How Long have you been in the division? - Deputy Warden Katies Schneider, the head of the Human Resources division, started on the 28th of June 2021. From that point, she worked on the division with all its members until she became the head of the division on the 01st of September 2021. As for the Assistant Head of Human Resources, Captain Julia Whitehorse, she joined the division on the 16th of December 2022, worked alongside the best, and learned from everyone around until being appointed assistant head of the division on the 13th of February 2023.
What are some changes you have put into place to affect DOC Day-To-Day? - The Human Resources division has a major effect on the day-to-day duties, as it takes care of the majority of the procedures and the way they get done. One of the most noticeable changes was the introduction of the Correctional Custodian rank, which offered civilians the opportunity to join the department and gave the department the opportunity to have new types of day-to-day activity.
What has been the most exciting thing to happen within HR during your period with the division? - The most exciting thing that happened within HR was probably when we implemented the CCO. That day, we remember it was so great to see the fruit of nights of work and preparation. It was such an amazing feeling to see everyone so excited about it, not only DOC employees but also civilians, as it created such a great opportunity for them.
What words of wisdom would you pass along to all new Officers at DOC? - Welcome to the Family of the best D. We look forward to seeing you shine and be at your best.
How does one apply to work at the DOC? - The process of joining the San Andreas Department Of Correction is a simple process to follow. After checking the Recruitment Section within the public section of the SADOC on the government website, the applicant should fill out a written application and submit it. After that, the application will be reviewed and checked by a member of Human Resources. Once the application passes the first step, the applicant has to go through an interview and, in the end, an academy.
Thank you Deputy Warden Katie Schneider and Captain Julia Whitehorse your time!

Correctional Officer Spotlight
- What is your most memorable moment while serving as a corrections officer for the SADOC?
Where do you see yourself in 3 months' time?As an individual, my most memorable moment was achieving the rank of supervisor within the Human Resources division. After numerous months of dedication, hard work, and training, I was thoroughly satisfied to see my efforts noticed and subsequently awarded.
What is your favorite thing about being a corrections officer at the SADOC?I would like to see myself as a supervisor within the next 3 months, hopefully as a Corporal.Personally, being in the Human Resources division is an unparalleled experience for me. Hiring and training new staff to a rank where they can conduct their departmental duties is my favorite aspect. When I see newer members of staff flourishing after conducting their recruitment process, it serves as a reminder to myself about the difference I and my team make.
